We’re Getting Ready to Celebrate World Water Day!

We’re Getting Ready to Celebrate World Water Day!

The celebration of World Water Day (WWD) has become a tradition for SHUKALB and its member water and wastewater utilities, as a unique opportunity to draw attention and create momentum that compels government, civil society, and individuals to take action.

World Water Day is a Program of United Nations, celebrated every year on 22 March, aiming to focus the attention on the importance of freshwater and advocating for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.  Each year, World Water Day highlights a specific aspect of water, and the theme chosen from UN for this year is “Accelerating Change”.

This World Water Day is about accelerating change to solve the water and sanitation crisis. And because water affects us all, we need everyone to take action.

That means you!

You and your family, school and community can make a difference by changing the way you use, consume and manage water in your lives. Your commitments will be added to the Water Action Agenda, to be launched at the UN 2023 Water Conference – the first event of its kind for nearly 50 years. This is a once-in-a-generation moment for the world to unite around water.

Play your part. Do what you can.

Even this year, SHUKALB will support the water utilities across Albania through designing promotional materials with the message of the WWD, to be further used by the utilities in organizing their public outreach events at the local level.  SHUKALB has prepared digital awareness campaign and traditional awareness campaign including leaflets with awareness messages, T-shirts, Tote bags, and pins with WWD logo and the logo of the water utility.

All the water utilities that would like to organize awareness and outreach events on the WWD are welcome to contact SHUKALB through the e-mail address program@shukalb.al.

And don’t forget to send to us pictures from your event.  We will be sharing these pictures together with a short description of your event on our social media networks, and on the next BURIMI e-newsletter.  Let’s get ready to celebrate together!
