WORLD WATER DAY 2023
MARCH 22, 2023
Theme: Accelerating change
World Water Day 2023 is about accelerating change to solve the water and sanitation crisis. Dysfunction throughout the water cycle undermines progress on all major global issues, from health to hunger, gender equality to jobs, education to industry, and disasters to peace. In 2015, the world committed to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 as part of the 2030 Agenda – the promise that everyone would have safely managed water and sanitation by 2030. Billions of people and countless schools, businesses, healthcare centers, farms, and factories are being held back because their human rights to water and sanitation still need to be fulfilled. There is an urgent need to accelerate change – to go beyond ‘business as usual. ’The latest data show that governments must work on average four times faster to meet SDG 6 on time, but this is not a situation that any single actor or group can solve. Water affects everyone, so we need everyone to take action.
Acknowledging the worth of this precious natural resource, the Department of Civil Engineering is going to observe “WORLD WATER DAY- 2023”. An Online Quiz Competition (Quiz on water-Aquatech 3.0) is going to be organized on 21st March 2023 followed by an Expert Lecture on 22nd March 2023, second-floor seminar hall, Academic Block- F, 10:00 am onwards.
The quiz competition is open to all the branches. E-Certificates will be provided to all the participants. The prizes will be awarded to the winners. There is No Registration fee for participation.
