March is Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene month
This month’s Rotary theme focuses on one of the seven areas of focus of Rotary International “Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene”. The goal of Rotary is to create healthier communities by providing clean water and sanitation facilities and preventing the spread of infectious diseases. Rotary clubs and their members are worldwide collectively working with communities to improve water, sanitation, and hygiene facilities. https://www.rotary.org/en/our-causes/providing-clean-water
The importance of clean, safe and enough water as a necessity for a healthy environment and productive lives of people is globally highlighted on March 22nd, which is recognized as World Water Day, an annual United Nations (UN) observance day that highlights the importance of fresh water. Every year a theme is chosen for World Water Day to focus on topics relevant to clean water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), which is in line with the targets of Sustainable Development Goal 6.
