In Celebration of World Water Day, 2026 Clean Water Foundation and Airline Ambassadors International are celebrating World Water Day with a delivery of fresh, clean drinking water to South Africa and El Salvador. Clean Water Fundraisers fundraisers at Vino Bella were a huge sucess and allowed us to send water filters to both S, Africa ad El Salvador – Special thanks to Kirkland Rotary! See pics below:
World Water Day, observed annually on 22 March, raises global awareness of freshwater and sanitation challenges. The 2026 theme, ‘Water and Gender’, emphasises safe drinking water and sanitation as fundamental human rights and critical enablers of gender equality, directly contributing to Sustainable Development Goals 6 and 5.
Despite progress, women and girls continue to bear a disproportionate burden of water and sanitation responsibilities, and remain und errepresented in water governance and leadership.
To mark this celebration, the UNESCO Office in Venice and the World Water Assessment Programme (WWAP) are organising a meeting, which will take place on 23 March 2026 in Venice, Italy. Under the theme ‘Water and Gender – Where Water Flows, Equality Grows’, this event will launch the UN World Water Development Report 2026 (WWDR 2026) and convene key stakeholders to foster dialogue, partnerships, and action towards more inclusive and resilient water systems.
More specifically, the event aims to:
- present the key findings and policy recommendations of the WWDR 2026 on water and gender;
- position gender equality as a central pillar of water security, climate resilience, and sustainable development;
- amplify women’s leadership and voices in water governance, services, and decision-making;
- foster cross-sectoral dialogue and partnerships to accelerate progress toward SDG 6 and SDG 5 at global, regional, and national levels.
