World Water Day 2013: a wake-up call for action
Women for Water Partnership endorses the Wake-up Call for Action issued at the World Water Day celebration in The Hague. In this International Year for Water Cooperation, we express the hope that together we can achieve water and sanitation for all and will manage our finite water resources sustainably.
As the Women’s Major Group, we are fully committed to continue our bottom-up approach and double our efforts to still reach the Water & Sanitation goal for the year 2015. We do this in partnership with other civil society actors, with local to national governments, river basin authorities and the private sector and for the benefit of all.
