With an aim to push forward the cause of water conservation, more than 500 women were brought together here in the national capital by an umbrella organisation of women-led ventures in areas of art, architecture, design and engineering to form the world's largest human formation of the letter 'W'.

The event marked the beginning of a community named 'Women Water Warriors', with the letter 'W' representing women standing for the water conservation cause.

Initiated by WADE Foundation Chairperson Vertica Dvivedi, the massive on-ground awareness campaign at NSIC Ground in Okhla area of the national capital last weekend brought together more than 500 women from various fields for a common purpose in different capacities.

Dvivedi, also the founder of WADE Asia (the continent's largest platform for women architects, designers, artists and engineers), said, "Creating a world record and getting recognized by the Asia Book of Records is very encouraging for all the Women Water Warriors. I consider it as the beginning for many more great things to come."
