Water is one of the most essential natural resources for sustaining life, yet its availability is increasingly threatened by overconsumption, population growth, and inefficient management practices. This research paper presents a comprehensive water audit conducted at Guru Nanak College of Education and Research. The study focuses on identifying water wastage, analyzing its long-term impact, and promoting sustainable water management practices within an educational institution. The findings reveal that even minor leakages can lead to significant annual water loss, amounting to approximately 9460.8 liters from a single source. The study highlights the importance of water audits as an effective tool for conservation and emphasizes the role of educational institutions in fostering environmental awareness and responsible behavior among students. The research concludes with practical recommendations for reducing water wastage and promoting sustainability at both institutional and individual levels.
