About International World Water Day

International World Water Day, annually held on March 22, began in 1993 to bring international attention to global and local water issues. The 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development recommended that a day be set aside to recognize and celebrate freshwater. The theme for 2009 World Water Day is transboundary water. Because we all live upstream or downstream, we all share water and need to share opportunities for cooperation. Visit the official World Water Day website.
