SECTION-II: CONCEPT:
“The water cycle and life cycle are one” #WaterActionDecade #WaterAction

Through the bi-annual #JUCAwards project, The Light Millennium, Charitable Global Human Advancement Organization (LMGlobal.Org), we have aimed to encourage ideas in writing, and creative and innovative thinking by high-school students as well as by former students who had dropped out of school.

Based on LMGlobal.Org’s involvement and annually presented programs in connection with World Water Day (March 22) starting in 2021, and onward, and is a “Specially Accredited” Organization to the UN 2023 Water Conference, along with presenting a side event at the conference #W175, and committed to contributing toward the #WaterActionDecade #A/RES/71/222 / Seventy-first session: International Decade for Action, “Water for Sustainable Development”, 2018–2028; which set out the ground toward dedicating the 2025 J.U.C. Awards to the Water Action Decade. 

In 2023, the LMGlobal.Org presented a late-stage included #WaterAction Awards category based on the #2023UNWaterConference, along with the LMGlobal.Org’s Side Event #W175, “What Is Your Commitment To The Water Action Decade?” and the #OneMinute #WaterActionCommitment mini-video series. A combination of these, the Organization decided to dedicate the 2025 J.U.C. Awards in all categories to the #WaterActionDecade & #SDG6. 

 Jacques Yves Cousteau reminds us via the following powerful quote “We forget that the water cycle and the life cycle are one.” In this context, the 2025 J.U.C. Awards holistically aims to encourage high school students toward involving for submissions in this inextricable #watercycle and #lifecyle concepts, along with support of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Action Plan, in particular, in connection with the below referred “Work Stream #2 & 3”.

Since today’s high school students and youth will be our nearest future in any part of the world toward shaping our nearest future in connection with the Water Action Decade as “the water cycle and life cycle are one”, which is the overarching concept toward “water awareness, water conscience, and game changes, along with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals at large by 2030.

All in all, our vision and ultimate goal is for this project to encourage international high school students and youth to be involved, think, and produce ideas in connection with the Water Action Decade based on one of the selected categories such as Media/Digital Arts, Research, Writing & Innovative Ideas on the global level.

SECTION-XIX: CORE INSPIRATION SOURCE OF THE J.U.C. AWARDS
As a mother, I fully believed in my son’s rich,  untapped potential and intellect. I fully believed that he would eventually find a way to activate that potential and contribute to his and society’s well-being… He was a gifted student in “Aster” class since kindergarten. He gave so much importance to being intelligent at all times. Since he was 17, J.U.C. focused on these ‘self-thought and designed’ IQ tests, which he shared with me from time to time with great excitement. Recently, I’ve located four of those, which are available online [ref. www.iqexams.net]. He even made me take his IQ tests!
And now, upon his sudden departure and this tremendous loss and pain, I’ve been questioning, WHY am I facing this fate? … WHY I am here but he is NOT anymore?
It is and will be a harsh reality to accept as long as I am alive, and it is very difficult to live with this realization…
Unfortunately, J.U.C. (‘Canım’) is no longer with us in person and that is the harsh reality and fact.
With this in mind, my whole attempt is to transform my love for him along with my deep sorrow and pain into a constructive path as if he is still with us, and as if he will see this project named after him to inspire many students/youth. Consequently, I feel as if he will turn to me with a beautiful smile, and will say this:
“Mom, did you really create this project in my name? Thanks, Mom.”
This is all I expect to hear in my imagination, in my mind, as if he is/will be with us for many years to come so that its positive outcome will also help me hold on to life and make me happy because it will make him happy…
[…]
It is now my hope to be able to carry out and touch on a few students’ lives in positive, constructive, and inspirational ways through The Light Millennium, Inc. – A Charitable Global Human Advancement Organization.
As the saying goes: While one hope dies, thousands may be reborn.
