EC Natural Water Retention Measures project: invitation to join regional network
A project currently being undertaken by the European Commission on ‘Natural Water Retention Measures’ (NWRM) is coordinated by the International Office for Water (OIEau), that is also involved in the process of the regional networks.
An important part of the programme of work is the aim to develop a network of interested technical experts and water managers across Europe, who can contribute to effective implementation of Natural Water Retention Measures (NWRM) at the River Basin scale and across Europe.
The project has been presented during the last INBO GA in Plovdiv. At this occasion, we explained we would propose to join the NWRM network. You will find on the NWRM website an invitation to join the project, a project leaflet and a background document on NWRM.
In order to provide appropriate regional focus, we are establishing four regional networks: Western Europe, Northern Europe/Baltic region, Danube and Mediterranean. According to your regional scope and interests, you would be most welcomed to join the related network.
