A video in Tahitian to explain why WSPs are useful
French and Tahitian are French Polynesia’s two official languages and are spoken widely. To optimise access to information on why WSPs are useful to municipalities, an awareness-raising video was translated into Tahitian.
Translating a video into a country's native language can have a significant impact in terms of accessibility, audience engagement and inclusion.
Discover the different stages in setting up a WSP and each stakeholder’s responsibilities through this cartoon clip in Tahitian and French:
Having a municipality design and implement a water safety plan (WSP) allows the authorities to identify potential hazards related to how their water production and distribution systems operate so as to identify and prevent health risks.
This video was produced by the PROTEGE project in partnership with the French Polynesia Department of the Environment (DIREN), the Syndicat pour la promotion des communes de Polynésie française (SPC-Pf, an association that promotes French Polynesia’s municipalities) and the Pacific Community, with the financial support of the European Union.
