Every year on March 22, the United Nations (UN) observes World Water Day to raise awareness of the value of fresh water. The purpose of the day is to promote the responsible management of freshwater resources. In keeping with the objectives of Sustainable Development Goal 6, each year’s theme focuses on issues related to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH). Every year, around World Water Day, the UN releases the World Water Development Report (WWDR).
