World Water Day has been observed on March 22 since 1993 when the UN General Assembly declared March 22 as World Day for Water
In addition to the UN member states, a number of NGOs promoting clean water and sustainable aquatic habitats have used World Day for Water as a time to focus public attention on the critical water issues.
