UTEP's One Water Cluster and UACJ faculty and staff Present:
March 17 - 22, 2025
Day, observed annually on March 2nd since 1993, celebrates water and raises awareness of the 2.2 billion people living without access to safe water.
The UTEP One Water Cluster and faculty and staff at UACJ are inviting you to our annual celebration of World Water Day in March 2025. As we have for the past four years, we will celebrate with a week of interdisciplinary events. These events are designed to engage faculty, students, and community partners who are working on the issue of water from various perspectives. This creates a public platform to increase visibility of water scholarship and activism. It also provides an opportunity to develop new connections and working relationships on the topic. We expect to have a mixture of online and in-person events.
This year’s theme is: “Water: States and Transformations”.
Water Week 2025 will mobilize the multiple meanings of these terms to explore the role of water within the institutional frameworks that govern its access, use, and distribution. We urge contributions that interrogate how nation-states, agencies, and organizations shape or respond to global inequalities, water conservation, and emerging technologies, while emphasizing transformative solutions to the environmental and socio-political challenges of water scarcity and governance.
