In many regions, it may be difficult to reconcile water supply and demand both in terms of quantity and quality. The aim of the RDI actions under this theme is, therefore, to bridge the gap in “supply–demand” by enabling the sustainable management of water resources.
WaterWorks2017 will be implemented through the Water JPI 2018 Joint Call for transnational collaborative projects on Research & Innovation, in particular on SRIA - Theme 5 “Closing the Water Cycle Gap – Improving Sustainable Water Resources Management”.
The following two themes are targeted in this thematic area:
The Water JPI 2018 Joint Call will be funded by 21 Funding Partner Organisations (including the ANR) from 19 countries and with the support of the European Commission.
The provisional list of participating countries and funding partner organisation can be found using this link.
Consortia should be comprised of a minimum of three partners from three different participating countries, at least two of them should be from Europe or Horizon 2020 associated countries participating in the call. Funding of the participating researchers will be provided by their respective national funding organisations, in accordance with their national eligibility conditions.
Researchers from other countries can also participate at their own costs (commitment needed for being associated to a consortium applying to the Water JPI 2018 Joint Call).
Additional eligibility criteria will be detailed in the Joint Call.
Researchers from the participating countries listed below can apply (following their national funding rules).
