World Water Day

World Water Day is about taking action to tackle the global water crisis.

The theme of World Water Day 2025 is ‘Glacier Preservation’.

Glaciers are critical to life – their meltwater is essential for drinking water, agriculture, industry, clean energy production and healthy ecosystems.

Nearly 2 billion people rely on water from glaciers, snowmelt and mountain run-off for drinking, agriculture, and energy production.

Rapidly melting glaciers are causing uncertainty to water flows, with profound impacts on people and the planet.

The United Nations World Water Development Report is launched on World Water Day itself, focusing on the same theme.
