Water is Life Project
Within the scope of the Community Service Practices Course given to 2nd year students at Bartın University, Faculty of Sports Sciences, Department of Physical Education and Sports, the students taking the course carry out the maintenance and cleaning of the drinking water fountains in Bartın Municipality and which all Bartın people benefit from, without using chemicals. A project has been prepared to ensure the disinfection of taps. Within the scope of this project, the necessary permission was first obtained from Bartın Municipality for cleaning, maintenance and disinfection operations, the implementation preparations for the project were completed, and then the environmental and tap maintenance of the areas determined by our Municipality was carried out. Within the scope of this application, it was shown that measures taken in simple but effective ways, instead of expecting everything from institutions, could have positive contributions to public health, and the project was completed with the sensitivity and support of the Municipality staff and Bartın University units. Course instructor Dr. Murat SARIKABAK said, “I would like to thank the Mayor of Bartın Municipality, Mr. Hüseyin Fahri FIRINCIOĞLU, and the Valuable Employees of Bartın Municipality, who provided their support during the practices carried out within the scope of this activity, the Department of Administrative Financial Affairs, the Department of Construction Affairs and the Department of Health, Culture and Sports, and the course practices.
