Given the impacts of climate change on water, it is more imperative than ever that we value this precious resource in a responsible and accountable manner.

World Water Day will be celebrated on March 22, 2021 to raise awareness around global water shortages and support the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6: water and sanitation for all by 2030.

“The theme of World Water Day 2021 is valuing water. The value of water is about much more than its price – water has enormous and complex value for our households, food, culture, health, education, economics and the integrity of our natural environment. If we overlook any of these values, we risk mismanaging this finite, irreplaceable resource. SDG 6 is to ensure water and sanitation for all. Without a comprehensive understanding of water’s true, multidimensional value, we will be unable to safeguard this critical resource for the benefit of everyone.”

WSP Values Water

To support and amplify this important message, WSP has planned a series of upcoming webinars and Insights articles that showcase how WSP is helping water operators deliver efficient, reliable and resilient services to their communities. From proactive planning to sustainable operations, WSP experts will share lessons learned from recent projects and explore innovative solutions related to drinking water, wastewater and water storage.
