Doha, Qatar: With the development of societies and continuous growth of population, water necessity for human life and stability increases more and more every day around the world.
More than three billion people on the planet depend on water that crosses national borders. However, only 24 countries have cooperation agreements on all shared waters.
With the increasing impact of climate change and its wide repercussions on water resources, the need to unite countries to protect this vital resource is urgent and necessary.
Qatar, along with the rest of the world, will celebrate World Water Day 2024 tomorrow, March 22, held under the theme 'Water for Peace,' to highlight its importance and inspire measures aimed at addressing the global water crisis.
Qatar is aware of the importance of water, the necessity of preserving it, rationalizing its consumption and managing its resources in a way that achieves sustainability, especially since these aspirations align with the Qatar National Vision (QNV) 2030 which aims to make sure that a decent living is provided to its people.
