Something New to Celebrate<\/strong><\/p>\n

World Water Week 2011<\/p><\/div>\n

There are so many days we celebrate, observe, and obsess over that it\u2019s almost impossible to keep track of them all. We have Earth Day, Star Wars Day, Mother\u2019s Day, Father\u2019s Day, Valentine\u2019s Day, Pi Day, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Women\u2019s History Month, and National Left-Handed Day. I think you get the idea.<\/p>\n

Most of us know this week is Discovery Channel\u2019s Shark Week. (Congratulations on the 25th<\/sup> Anniversary!) But did you know World Water Week is coming up? Me either. I have Twitter to thank for bringing it to my attention. It\u2019s fitting that the World Water Week is taking place so soon after Shark Week, if you ask me.\u00a0<\/p>\n

World Water Week is kicking off Sunday, August 26th<\/sup>, in Stockholm, Sweden where it takes place every year thanks to SIWI (Stockholm International Water Institute).<\/p>\n

While World Water Week doesn\u2019t involve reruns of Jaws<\/em> it is worth checking out. Since I\u2019ve just been introduced to World Water Week (thank you Google) we can learn together.<\/p>\n

There are multiple websites full of information and events that will be taking place in Sweden for World Water Week. I suggest starting with:<\/p>\n

Make sure to take a look at the list of the various workshop topics.\u00a0 It might just spark your interest on all the work these organizations are doing. Exhibitors come to share their area of expertise with all those participating in the conference. There certainly isn\u2019t a lack of exhibitors if you take a look this year\u2019s list. You can also take part in workshops, seminars, and if you\u2019re a young participant you might just be lucky enough to share your views on the topic of this year\u2019s convention, water and food security.<\/p>\n

Of course you can always be social media savvy and search the hash tag #wwweek on Twitter to see what other people are saying. It\u2019s up to you! But it is worth your time to check it out! I know I enjoyed learning about something new to celebrate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
