Every three years, the World Water Council convenes an international forum to raise awareness on global water challenges. The 9th Water Forum to be held in Dakar, Senegal from 22-27 March 2022. The forum’s aim is to raise awareness among economic, political and social decision makers in order to trigger action; facilitate dialogue and experience sharing on efforts to improve access to water and sanitation supply and; to create an environment for cooperation in the implementation of integrated concrete responses to issues in water. In addition, this year’s World Water Day-22nd March is focusing on groundwater “Making the invisible visible”. As climate change gets worse, groundwater is becoming more and more critical.
