Swimmable Ljubljana, razvita v okviru inicijative I AM WATER in globalnega zavezništva Swimmable Cities, si prizadeva za plavalnost Ljubljanice ter za dostop do varne in čiste vode. Z združevanjem urbanistov, okoljskih strokovnjakov, umetnikov, skupnostnih voditeljev in javnih institucij soustvarjamo pogoje za skupno vizijo: Ljubljanica kot dostopna reka, primerna za plavanje do leta 2030.
Inicijativa temelji na ustavni pravici do vode in čistega okolja ter na globoki kulturni in mitološki povezanosti slovenskega naroda z naravno dediščino.
Swimmable Ljubljana, initiated by Tanja Andrejasic Wechsler through I AM WATER and aligned with the global Swimmable Cities alliance, works toward a swimmable Ljubljanica and access to safe, clean water. By bringing together urbanists, environmental experts, artists, community leaders, and public institutions, we are co-creating the conditions for a shared vision: the Ljubljanica as an accessible river, suitable for swimming by 2030.
The initiative is grounded in the constitutional right to water and a clean environment, as well as in the deep cultural and mythological connection of the Slovenian people to their natural heritage.
