where the Company operates, with a strong
social commitment in all of its business deci-
sions. Over the past few years, the Drawing
Contest is FCC Aqualia’s main tool to teach
children about water management in muni-
cipalities and to create awareness amongst
them on respect for the environment. In
2016, the FCC subsidiary organized the
14th edition of this initiative under the slogan
“The cycle of water for the brave”. A messa-
ge disseminated among more than 160,000
