World Water Day

Each year, the World Day for Water falls on the 22 March. The day was formally proposed in 1992 at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro by the United Nations General Assembly, and it
was adopted the year after as an annual observance day focusing on the importance of fresh water.

The day celebrates water and raises awareness of the 2.2 billion people living without access to safe water. It is about taking action to tackle the global water
crisis. A core focus of World Water Day is to support the achievement of sustainable Development Goal 6: water and sanitation for all by 2030.

This year, the theme for World Water Day is water’s role in gender equality.

Lord, we pray for all those around the world without access to clean water. Give thanks for those charities who work to change this inequality and help to
ensure everyone can drink fresh water and remain healthy.
