christina sassayannis

She founded Through Waters project in 2012. In 2015 Through Waters became an no profit Organization based in Geneva and in 2016 she founded the TW headquarter in Rome.

Father greek and mother swiss she lived always in a international ambience traveling through Europe and South America.

Graduated in Literature and Philosophy High School she became Anthropologist and researcher.

In recent years she focused her interest in the relationship between man and environment. She held various ethnographic research in the field on issues ranging from the relationship between culture and environment and gender difference, migration and life histories (Jordan / Greece / Italy / Sudan / Cambodia / India / China). For several years she has deepened her interest on water, studying the impact of climate change and local policies on the use of water resources.

Valuing water culturally and through art, realizing workshops with children and students, means for her creating awareness and sensitivity, with the goal to protect this fundamental element that gives life.

She wants to develop a new way of dialogue and integration through art building consciousness of the beauty of difference and of human beings worldwide.
