History Of World Water Day

Water Day was proposed on Agenda 22 of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992.

A day dedicated to raising awareness of water issues around the world with a focus on ensuring that all communities have access to clean water sources. It has been held every year since the first Water Day in March 1993.
