"Valuing water
Water means different things to different people.
Water is important to our home and family life, our livehood, our cultural practices, our wellbeing, our local environment
In households, schools and workplaces, water can mean health, hygiene, dignity and productivity.
In cultural, religious and spiritual places, water can mean a connection with creation, community and oneself.
In natural spaces, water can mean peace, harmony and preservation.
Today, water is under extreme threat from a growing population, increasing demands of agriculture and industry, and the worsening impacts of climate change."

Message from Romania
Water is life.
Protect water and water will protect you!
Message from Finnish pupils from Oulu, Finland:
” Water is important because nothing would survive without water. 60% of your body is water; so if there is no water there is none of us which makes water the most important thing ever. It’s a key to survival. And without it we would all die after 3 horrible days. We should also be grateful for the fact that we even have clean water to drink because some people don’t. And remember to drink at least 2 liters of water everyday.”
Message from Italy
Safe water for everybody is the target for people all over the world. Water is precious: help to save it and keep it clean
Message from Bulgaria
The water means life! We all have to use it wisely! Let's start from today.
