    Website/DVD that gives insight into various aspects of the way in which Switzerland handles water as a resource. The texts are supplemented with 125 minutes of video material, audios, documents, graphics, photos and links. A special section for schools can be found in the "Teacher's corner" (also available in French, German and Italian!) The videos look especially good!
