Cross-sectoral collaboration
“If you look through a microscope at a single drop of ditch water, you will see a thousand odd-looking creatures, such as you never could imagine dwelled in water.” H.C. Andersen.
Our project lends its name from the H.C. Andersen fairytale The Water Drop, quoted above. A single drop of water may not seem like much, but upon closer look it can contain entire worlds – and isn’t that exactly what good children’s literature is all about? By carefully observing the small things, it let’s us discover the big principles of life.
The partnership includes the cultural institutions and educational institutions of Kópavogur municipality (IS), H.C. Andersen House in Odense (DK), Moomin Museum in Tampere (FI) and Ilon’s Wonderland in Haapsalu (EE).
The Water Drop project is made possible through the generous support of The Icelandic Children’s Fund, Kópavogur Art & Culture Fund, Nordic Culture Fund, Nord Plus and Erasmus+.
