The United Nations General Assembly proclaimed the
year 2003 as the International Year of Freshwater. The
resolution 55/196, adopted on 20 December 2000, was
initiated by the Government of Tajikistan, State of Central
Asia, and supported by 148 countries.
It encourages Governments, the United Nations system,
national and international actors, and the private sector to
help promote the importance of sustainable freshwater
use, management, and protection.
