World Water Day 2023

World Water Day 2023

The theme of World Water Day 2023 is accelerating change. This theme aims to urge governments, civil society, and individuals to accelerate progress toward achieving Sustainable Development Goal 6. To ensure safe drinking, bathing, and using proper sanitation facilities for everyone, we need more action, ambition, and innovation.

 

The main goal is to fulfill the commitments of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and ensure that Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) are seen as core elements in all sectors. Additionally, the theme explores how to coordinate action across multiple sectors, strengthen the collaboration among stakeholders, and maximize impact.

 

In 2023, World Water Day will provide an opportunity for people, corporations, and governments to take responsibility for achieving WASH objectives on time. Governments should prioritize investment in infrastructure such as pipes, sewers, wells, pumps, water tanks, and basic maintenance systems.

 

The UN 2023 Water Conference will be held in New York from 22 to 24 March 2023. By discussing what needs to change, we should create a collective action plan to help us reach our goals faster than ever. Now is the time for each of us to take responsibility for our actions. As a result, we will be able to accelerate the necessary changes needed to improve hygiene standards worldwide. By doing this, every person in the world can access clean drinking water.
