News Preannouncement: ERA-Net IWRM-Net 2d joint Call for research proposals

IWRM-Net (towards a European wide exchange Network for integrating research efforts on Integrated Water Resources Management) is a network composed of national and regional research programmes managers and funders. By improving the knowledge transfer amongst stakeholders in charge of IWRM, the IWRM network
enables partners to work on synergies between research needs and policy, and promotes interdisciplinary activities concerning IWRM across Europe within the context of the Water Directive Framework implementation.

The focus for this 2nd Call is on developing strategies and solutions to meet the various challenges connected to climate change, droughts and water scarcity as such.
