Celebration on 25th World Water Day Today

Damaged ecosystems affect the quantity and quality of water available for human consumption. Today, 2.1 billion people live without safe drinking water at home; affecting their health, education and livelihoods.

Every year March 22 is celebrated as the World Water day. The day is celebrated to focus on the importance of water and need to preserve it.

The United Nations General Assembly designated 22 March 1993 as the first World Water Day, and this year it’s  25th World Water Day falls on 22nd.

The main symbol of the World Water Day celebration is the shape of water drop in  blue color.

The theme for World Water Day 2018 is ‘Nature for Water’ – exploring nature-based solutions to the water challenges we face in the 21st century.
