The theme of World Water Day 2024, Water for Peace, emphasizes that when we cooperate on water, we create a positive ripple effect fostering harmony, generating prosperity, and building resilience to shared challenges. How do you contribute to the theme of “Water for Peace”? What projects have you worked on, what interactions are you most proud of, and what tips do you have to share for effective collaboration to further this intiative?
🌊 Happy #WorldWaterDay! The water within our wetlands is a valuable natural resource, sustaining both humanity and biodiversity through the multiple services they provide including capturing and storing rainwater and replenishing groundwater aquifers. The theme of World Water Day 2024, Water for Peace, emphasizes that when we cooperate on water, we create a positive ripple effect fostering harmony, generating prosperity, and building resilience to shared challenges. This is particularly crucial as over 3 billion people worldwide depend on water that crosses national borders. #WetlandConservation #WetlandsMatter
