Introducing “The Disconnect”: A Riveting 5-Part Docu-Series
Welcome to a journey that promises to ignite your passion for change. We present to you “The Disconnect,” a compelling 5-part docu-series set in the vibrant heart of Trinidad, where untold stories of water scarcity and road damage weave a tapestry of challenges.
Our mission? To uncover the voices unheard, to shine a spotlight on the issues often concealed. It’s all about water, and it’s all about you. Join us as we dive into the intricate web of water management, unearthing the profound impact of water shortage and leakage on South Trinidad’s communities, with the Water and Sewage Authority (WASA) under the scrutinizing lens.
The driving force behind this transformative endeavor is none other than Josh Clement, our Project Lead. Fresh from completing an outstanding Freshwater and Community Conservation externship with ParagoneOne in April 2023, Josh brings unparalleled dedication and expertise to our cause.
But who’s Paragone One? The force that fuels our journey. Paragone One is a visionary company on a mission to empower diverse students on a global scale. Collaborating with the National Geographic Society and The Nature Conservancy, they host remote externships, setting the stage for strategic projects that leave an indelible mark.
Now, what sets “The Disconnect” apart from the rest? Prepare to be enthralled by never-before-seen footage, exposing shattered communities grappling with the harsh realities of water scarcity and road damage. We’ll take you to the very heart of these affected neighborhoods, delivering raw and unfiltered accounts from the people who live it.
But we don’t stop there. We’re forging alliances with local environmental NGOs, councilors, and the Member of Parliament (MP), all in tandem with WASA, to bring you innovative solutions and ignite a wave of awareness. Together, we’re pioneering initiatives to foster better water management and conservation habits.
We are led by a shared vision of change. Our objectives are clear, and our commitment unwavering. Together, we plan to rewrite the narrative of water management in Trinidad. Join us on this journey as we bring “The Disconnect” to life, and together, we’ll make a difference. For all communities.
