World Water Day is an annual event celebrated on March 22nd to raise awareness about the importance of freshwater and advocate for the sustainable management of water resources. It was first observed in 1993 after being recommended at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in 1992.
Each year, World Water Day focuses on a specific theme related to water conservation, sanitation, and access to clean water. Themes often highlight global water-related issues such as water scarcity, water pollution, water-related disasters, and the importance of water for sustainable development, health, and ecosystems.
The day serves as an opportunity for governments, organizations, communities, and individuals to take action and promote initiatives aimed at addressing water challenges, improving water access and sanitation, and protecting water ecosystems.
