The Benjamin Franklin Science Corner
celebrated World Water Day and
Paraguay’s Women Day.
For World Water Day, the Benjamin
Franklin Science Corner worked together
with the Information Center of the United
Nations and the Roosevelt Library from the
CCPA. The program included a
presentation by the engineer Olga Marecos
who gave a conference about better water,
better jobs, and better lives.

We plan to Celebrate
Paraguay's Women
Day on March 2017 by
doing Workshops with
Women in Science

The program included a presentation by the
engineer Olga Marecos who gave a
conference about better water, better jobs,
and better lives.
The goal of the program was to brainstorm
possible solutions, as engineers, for
Paraguay's water problems and inspire
students to pursue a career in Engineering.
The 200 participants included students
from eight different high schools from
surrounding areas of the Science Corner.

“World Water
Day is March
22.”
