World Water Day 2006 events focus on children
20 Mar 06
Many of the events organised for 22 March, World Water Day, involve children. The celebrations listed on the World Water Day web site, the site maintained by IRC, show that throughout the world special attention is given to children. York Children's Water Festival, Youth Water Summit 2006, WaterWise Art Contest 2006, The Great Drain Game, and a Water for Schools Campaign are just a few of the events in which children play a central role. Educating children, raising their awareness and providing better facilities for schools are all actions aimed at improving their environment. Read more about these events or post your own:

ZimWASH: addressing the water and sanitation needs of the rural poor in the context of HIV/AIDS in Zimbabwe
The ZimWASH project aims to strengthen the capacities of civil society organisations and local government in Zimbabwe in providing Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) services targeting the needs of the rural poor. It is one of the projects selected recently for funding by the European Union Water Facility (EU-WF), and co-financed by UNICEF Zimbabwe. The project, which will run for five years, will be implemented by UNICEF Zimbabwe together with the Mvuramanzi Trust, the Institute of Water and Sanitation Development (IWSD) and IRC.
