Under the patronage of H.E. Mr. Khalid Irani, the Minister of Environment, JREDS launched the second phase of the "Right to Water" project on the 6th of July 2006, which aims at empowering young leaders in the Right to Water concept and providing them with the needed skills to raise public awareness and spread the concept among other people.

The second phase of the Right to Water project looks at establishing aqua-clubs in schools and universities around the Kingdom and also focuses on establishing a water knowledge center at the visitor’s center, Aqaba Marine Park.
This phase began with intensive training of the trainers program which aimed at providing students with the needed technical skills to train others on the human rights to water. The courses conducted focused on the following subjects; team building skills, leadership skills, presentation skills, the right to water concept, in addition to general environmental awareness workshops.

The general guidelines for the Right to Water course covered the evaluation criteria of the UN concept: availability of water, water quality, physical accessibility and affordability, non-discrimination against marginalized areas or groups and information on water issues. Training also tackled the right to a sufficient supply of water for personal and domestic use.

The knowledge and skills gained through the training workshops provided the aqua-clubs’ leaders with a good base of information on the Human Rights to Water. Establishing those clubs at the universities and schools will provide a solid base for this concept to be more widely spread among young generations besides enhancing the "youth to youth" approach.

Initiatives
A special grant was also awarded to the most creative 3 ideas for initiatives to be designed and implemented by the youth leaders, which aimed to raise the awareness and knowledge on the Human Rights to Water.

The main three initiatives are:

1. Design and publish educational tools for school students
2. Hold an open day for the Right to Water in the city of Aqaba
3. Awareness campaign that includes the following:

• Design and print publications that hold messages about the human rights to water.
• Awareness workshops and lectures at different universities and schools.
• Write and record a song about the human rights to water and the environment in general.
• Design and publish a special website for the project that describes the achievements, goals and future plans.

Finally, JREDS, and throughout the project will aim at changing the youth perception of human rights, where youth leaders will thrive for their rights and work on achieving their mission
