In 2023 the focus is 'Accelerating Change', Billions of people are still living without safe water — this World Water Day is about accelerating change to solve the water and sanitation crisis: [https://www.worldwaterday.org/](https://www.worldwaterday.org/) Ahead of the day, UN-Water launches a global public campaign via [www.worldwaterday.org](http://www.worldwaterday.org\)) and on social media, giving people and organizations the tools to promote the campaign with their own audiences. Governments, organizations, companies, schools and many other actors also organize World Water Day activities. The *UN *[*World Water Development Report*](https://www.unwater.org/publication_categories/world-water-development-report/) is released on World Water Day, focusing on the same topic as the campaign and recommending policy direction to decision-makers. **We need to accelerate change – to go beyond ‘business as usual’  ** Governments have to work on average four times faster to meet SDG 6 on time, but this is not a situation that governments can solve on their own.  Water affects everyone, so we need everyone to take action.  You and your family, school and community can make a difference by changing the way you use, consume and manage water in your lives.  ** The Water Action Agenda ** Your commitments will be added to the larger-scale commitments from governments, companies, organizations, institutions and coalitions.  Together, these promises will form the [Water Action Agenda](https://sdgs.un.org/partnerships/action-networks/water), to be launched at the [UN 2023 Water Conference](https://sdgs.un.org/conferences/water2023).  This World Water Day is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to unite around water and accelerate progress together.  Play your part by doing what you can.    ![](https://www.fedco-usa.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/WWD-sq-logo-1.jpg) #### Related Projects [![XPRIZE named FEDCO Semifinalist Water Scarcity Competition](https://www.fedco-usa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/XPRIZE%20promo%20blog2.jpg?width=618&name=XPRIZE%20promo%20blog2.jpg) ](https://www.fedco-usa.com/news/xprize-named-fedco-semifinalist-water-scarcity-competition) ## [XPRIZE named FEDCO Semifinalist Water Scarcity Competition](https://www.fedco-usa.com/news/xprize-named-fedco-semifinalist-water-scarcity-competition) Recognition highlights FEDCO’s BiTurbo™ technology and continued commitment to innovative desalination solutions [Read More » ](https://www.fedco-usa.com/news/xprize-named-fedco-semifinalist-water-scarcity-competition) [![FEDCO completes milestone manufacturing capacity upgrade](https://www.fedco-usa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/DSCF5233.jpg?width=618&name=DSCF5233.jpg) ](https://www.fedco-usa.com/news/fedco-completes-milestone-manufacturing-capacity-upgrade) ## [FEDCO completes milestone manufacturing capacity upgrade](https://www.fedco-usa.com/news/fedco-completes-milestone-manufacturing-capacity-upgrade) FEDCO is pleased to announce the successful completion of a comprehensive manufacturing upgrade project.
