The Big Jump :
Everybody will swim in the rivers the same day, at the same
hour, in all the European rivers, from the sources and the
glaciers to the oceans.
If
swimming or jumping in your river is not possible, then just
organize an other event and celebrate the river !
There are many ways to get citizens involved
...an
inspiring project that captures the essence of current EU
waterprotection legislation into one single public act:
at one date, at one time, people will jump into rivers all
over Europe. More
(European
Water Management News, 22 June 2005)
With
over 250 000 visitors, the Big Jump 2005 was a success. Along
31 rivers in 22 countries, 216 official actions, 240 inofficial
spontaneous jumps have been well organized ! Thank you !
(Read our final report
and visit the Photo
galery)
In
order to prepare the Big Jump 2010 (version XXL),
we call for the next intermediary Big Jump in 2008 and 2009
(please read our news section)
The
priority of the intermediary Big jumps is to spread Big
Jump on a larger number of rivers, and not to reach a peak
of events as it was in 2005. All Big Jumps are welcome,
but we will focus on new rivers in United Kingdom, in East
and South East Europe.
