WaterBear Network has partnered with 70 non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to tackle Covid-19.

Some of the partners are GreenPeace, Africa Parks, WWF, WCN, World Fairtrade Organisation, Women4Oceans, Sea Shepherd, Amazon Watch, Circle Economy and Jane Goodall Institute.

Each NGO, according to WaterBear, will showcase campaigns and stories through a bespoke channel on the platform.

WaterBear said that its members can connect with these organisations and support them in various ways via donations, subscriptions, calls to action, volunteering, purchasing sustainable products and travel.

Chief Executive Officer at WaterBear, Ellen Windemuth said

‘We are excited to have secured such a powerful community of NGO partners, uniting with our mission of impact storytelling to elevate and support their causes’, Advanced Television quoted the company’s Chief Executive Officer, Ellen Windemuth, as saying.

‘We want to make interacting with NGOs more accessible to everyone, and our platform of purpose-focused content will grant any viewer the opportunity to engage with the issues they care about most’.

Head of Communications at Vogelbescherming, Kees de Pater, said, ‘This is the first and only platform [WaterBear] that gives you access to the best visual content, and at the same time provides you with the opportunity to get involved in activities for a better world for both people and nature’, he said.

Pater also said that this move by WaterBear would especially attract many young people who love nature and worried about the environment and climate change.
