EU NEIGHBOURS. To mark World Water Day on 22 March, the project ‘European Union Water Initiative Plus for the Eastern Partnership Countries’ (EUWI+) launched a social media campaign to draw attention to protecting water resources.
The campaign is running from 9 to 13 March and uses the hashtag #WorldWaterDay.
World Water Day is an annual UN observance day that highlights the importance of freshwater. The day is used to advocate for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.
The EUWI+ project assists Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine to bring their legislation closer to EU policy in the field of water management, with a main focus on the management of transboundary river basins.
