tirto.id - Tanggal 22 Maret memperingati Hari Air Sedunia atau World Water Day setiap tahunnya.

Peringatan Hari Air Sedunia ini memberikan perhatian pada pentingnya keberadaan ini. Selain itu, semua pihak turut diingatkan mengenai kesadaran tentang krisis air yang dihadapi berbagai belahan dunia.

Sejarah Hari Air Sedunia tidak bisa dilepaskan dari penyelenggaraan Konferensi Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa tentang Lingkungan dan Pembangunan di Rio de Janeiro pada 1992. Dalam pelaksanaannya muncul ide untuk menetapkan sebuah hari internasional terkait air.

Masih di tahun yang sama, ide itu pun dibahas dalam Majelis Umum PBB. Setelah itu, PBB mengadopsi resolusi yang menyatakan bahwa 22 Maret setiap tahunnya menjadi peringatan Hari Air Sedunia. Peringatan pertama dilangsungkan pada 22 Maret 1993.

Dalam perjalanannya, dukungan kepedulian terhadap air ternyata mulai tampak dengan diadakannya perayaan dan cara lain. Contohnya, pada tahun 2013 ditetapkan sebagai Tahun Kerja Sama Internasional di Bidang Air 2013 atau International Year of Cooperation in the Water Sphere 2013.

Tak hanya itu, aksi yang berjalan dari tahun 2018 lalu masih berlangsung sampai saat ini. Aksi tersebut bertajuk International Decade for Action on Water for Sustainable Development, 2018-2028.

Tindakan ini sebagai upaya penegasan kembali tentang tindakan terhadap air dan sanitasi yang bisa menjadi kunci pengentasan kemiskinan, pertumbuhan ekonomi, dan kelestarian lingkungan.

Tema Hari Air Sedunia 2023

Tema Hari Air Sedunia 2023 adalah "Accelerating Change". Menurut PBB dalam situs UN Water, kampanye tahun memberikan fokus pada percepatan perubahan dalam mengatasi krisis air dan sanitasi.

Kampanye global Be the Change mendorong orang untuk mengambil tindakan dalam kehidupan mereka sendiri dalam rangka mengubah cara memperlakukan air. Di dalamnya meliputi cara menggunakan, mengonsumsi, hingga mengelola air.
