Hong Kong Calling!!!
Children from Mumbai Mobile Creches had been to Hong Kong to collect a prize for their work on mangroves in Mumbai.
This was a part of the Wetland Link International - Asia Inter-school Education Programme which is aimed to enhance collaboration in wetland conservation education within the WLI-Asia network. The kids were invited to the award presentation and conference held in Hong Kong on 26th April 2008.
The Mumbai Mobile Creches with help from CAT had participated in this competition to study the impacts of urbanization on wetlands. The Wadala centre of the Mobile Creches presented a puppet show on this topic.
This programme gave these under - privileged children an opportunity to showcase their talent and meet participants from countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Singapore, Malaysia and South Korea.
