On World Water Day, we reflect on the most essential resource for life: water. Under the slogan “Water for Peace”, we explore how this medium is essential for human survival, harmony and sustainability of the planet.
Together with J. Huesa Water Technology we remember the importance of drinking water and its impact on our lives.
Celebrating World Water Day: “Water for Peace”
Every year, World Water Day gives us the opportunity to reflect on the importance of this essential medium for life on our planet. This year, the slogan “Water for Peace”, reminds us that water is not only vital for taking care of the planet and ensuring that everyone can live happily and healthily for a long time, but also plays a key role in promoting peace and stability in the world.
This slogan invites us to recognise the transformative potential of water as a catalyst for cooperation and conflict resolution. In many regions of the world, water scarcity and competition for this precious resource can trigger tensions and conflicts between communities, regions and even countries. However, it also presents an opportunity for cooperation, dialogue and bridge-building between different stakeholders.
Equitable and sustainable access to safe water and sanitation is fundamental to building peaceful and prosperous societies. When people have access to clean and safe water, it strengthens social bonds, promotes health and well-being, and fosters economic and social development. In addition, water plays a key role in preserving the environment and ecosystems, contributing to environmental stability and resilience in the face of climate change.
At J. Huesa, we are committed to sustainable water management and the promotion of peace and stability in our communities. We work to ensure that our operations minimise our impact on water resources and promote responsible water use practices. We also collaborate with local and international partners to support initiatives that improve access to safe water and sanitation around the world.
On this day, we reaffirm our commitment to sustainable water management, the promotion of peace and cooperation around the world. Together, we can work towards a future where everyone has access to safe and clean water, and where water is an instrument of peace and prosperity for all.
The importance of Drinking Water
Access to safe drinking water is a fundamental human right for sustainable progress. Its equitable access is crucial to eradicating poverty and achieving food security and public health. Yet millions of people around the world still lack access to clean and safe water. J. Huesa recognises the importance of addressing this global challenge and is committed to providing innovative water treatment and distribution solutions for communities around the world.
In this context, we present statistics that not only surprise, but also inspire and motivate awareness:
- According to the UN, more than 2 billion people in the world lack access to safely managed drinking water.
- It is estimated that 80% of wastewater is discharged into the environment without adequate treatment, affecting water quality and the ecosystem.
- Access to safe drinking water could reduce water-related diseases and deaths by 21%.
- It is estimated that more than 800 million people worldwide lack access to basic drinking water services.
Water as a Driver of Development
Water is not only essential for human life, it is also a key driver of economic and social development. It provides the basis for agriculture, industry, tourism and many other activities that sustain our societies. The access to drinking water contributes to reducing disease, improving nutrition, promoting gender equality and empowering communities. By investing in water supply infrastructure and technologies, J. Huesa Water Technology contributes to the growth and prosperity of the communities it serves.
On World Water Day, we remember the vital importance of water for peace, stability and sustainable progress. J. Huesa Water Technology se enorgullece de contribuir a este objetivo proporcionando soluciones innovadoras en el tratamiento y distribución de agua para comunidades en todo el mundo. Al trabajar juntos, podemos garantizar que todos tengan acceso al agua potable y construir un futuro más saludable y próspero para las generaciones futuras.
