Ripple Effects – Manitoba, Canada – 2025
Teachers participating in the 2025 Summer Writing Institute of the Manitoba Writing Project at the University of Manitoba were invited to create Ripple Effects Place Projects by identifying an aspect of water (in)justice that was significant to their communities to become the focus of an inquiry into teaching writing and literacy. These projects all include the three key elements of a Ripple Effects project: photography, writing, and publication or circulation. The projects offer inspirational launching points for educators to imagine ways of engaging with inquiries about water in their own schools and communities.
Ripple Effects – Finland, South Africa, USA
This is a Ripple Effects project book created by university students from Finland, South Africa, and the US, in Spring 2025. The students all did photo and writing essays about water issues and ideas in their communities. They then shared and discussed their essays with each other before compiling them in this book.
