Held in Dakar, Senegal, the 9th World Water Forum kicks off on Monday March 21 and runs through Saturday March 26, coinciding with World Water Day 2022 on Tuesday March 22.
Throughout the week, IWMI will engage with government officials, policymakers, partners, media outlets, researchers, development practitioners, and others to fuel progress toward the 9th World Water Forum’s goal of achieving “water security for peace and development.” We will also celebrate the vital importance of groundwater — a crucial source of climate resilience and the official theme of this year’s World Water Day observance.
