A World Water Law: For Humanity, for the Animals and for All of Life
By Shelley Ostroff and Yan Golding

We are all birthed from Water. Ecosystems and human communities evolve around Water. As humanity rebirths itself at this critical juncture in human history, we align with Nature to honor, protect and restore the one Water body that nourishes all of Life.

How do we, as humanity, evolve to align with the principles of Life and co-create an oppression-free and vitalizing world for all?

The proposal for a World Water Law and World Water Year 2021 are citizen-led initiatives that offer a unifying and holistic framework for rapid and radical whole-system healing. These initiatives are based on the understanding that when we collectively prioritize the healing of our planetary waters and water cycle, we will activate an exponential healing process that will benefit all of Life simultaneously.

Imagine:

~ a thriving world where all humans and animals have guaranteed access to natural uncontaminated Water.

~ what humanity would need to learn and how we would need to organize to make this possible.

~ the healing shift in consciousness, culture and behavior that would be catalyzed by this collective commitment to prioritizing healthy water for all.

~ the vast impact across all sectors when we focus our human creativity and resources on this one common objective.

World Water Law

The Proposal for a World Water Law states:

We, citizens of Earth, call for and commit to working together to ensure that a binding international law is put in place for the immediate and universal protection of all Water, as the first vital step towards global cooperation for effective, worldwide social and ecological healing.

The World Water Law requires:

  • the uncompromising protection and restoration of all natural water sources, watersheds, aquifers, rivers, lakes, wetlands, estuaries and oceans
  • the rewilding of ecosystems, necessary for the restoration of the planetary water-cycle
  • the guaranteed, free access of all humans and animals to natural, uncontaminated Water

The World Water Law holds all governments, corporations, communities, and individuals, fully accountable for their impact on all waters everywhere.

This one Law serves as a unifying foundation for all governments and citizens to work together with community-led wisdom and stewardship councils in ways that effectively serve the health and vitality of the whole.

This global initiative honors the many Water Guardians around the world who have dedicated their lives to the protection and reverence of Water on behalf of all of Life.

World Water Year 2021

World Water Year 2021 is a call-to-action for citizens of all nations, cultures and ages to unite for Life and to collectively transform how we organize ourselves as a species. The core purpose of World Water Year 2021 is to create an extended period of time for individuals and groups to unite and collaborate for the global adoption and implementation of the World Water Law.

By dedicating an entire year to a single unifying cause that essentially benefits all humanity and all Life, World Water Year 2021 provides a substantial time frame for building momentum and implementing the foundations for lasting change.​

This bold and timely initiative is based on the understanding that the essential wisdom, skills, and creativity for making the World Water Law a global reality, already exist.

In almost every country there are numerous inspiring and impactful initiatives spanning all areas related to Water healing, restoration and management. As we coordinate globally and locally we will be able to amplify our efforts exponentially. The global community will be able to share findings, learnings, initiatives and resources ~ identifying, replicating, and scaling what works best.

World Water Year 2021 will be inaugurated on January 1st, 2021 at the start of the global healing event 7 Days of Rest & Radical Healing.

7 Days of Rest & Radical Healing 2021

7 Days of Rest & Radical Healing, Jan 1 – 7, 2021 is the fourth annual global event for the healing and replenishment of the planet and all its inhabitants.

The upcoming event will launch World Water Year 2021, as we come together from around the world to share our healing prayers, wisdom and practices and seed the New Year with the intention and commitment to support rapid and radical healing and a thriving world for all of Life.

These complementary initiatives create a timely opportunity for citizens to reclaim our authority and responsibility as healthy stewards for a healthy planetary ecosystem, and ensure a safe and thriving world for all species and for the entire Web of Life.

The World Water Law and World Water Year 2021 are the first global initiatives of Codes for a Healthy Earth – a unifying framework for citizen-led, exponential social and ecological healing.
