The United Nations designated March 22 World Water Day in 1993, following the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development. Since that time, the annual event grows awareness, education and coordination on water and sanitization efforts around the world. Yet, 2016 saw a push towards personal accountability and job creation that has many private and public sector organizations more excited than usual. Not only can clean water improve health, but it can also create revenue for those who maintain well sites.

Therefore, the theme of 2016 (Better Water, Better Jobs) focused on job creation and community development through establishing a clean water supply and sustainable well facilities – giving homage to the Chinese proverb, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” When everyone is in desperate need of a job, some successful organizations are looking to share their lessons learned.
