To highlight the importance of water and raise awareness about the global water crisis, World Water Day is being observed on March 22 every year.
The idea to mark World Water Day was first proposed in 1992 during the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro.
The United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution that year and declared that March 22 of every year be celebrated as World Day for Water. It was first marked in 1993.
The theme for World Water Day 2023 is 'Accelerating the change to solve the water and sanitation crisis', emphasising the necessity of taking stern action to address the global water crisis.
