Third Alignment Workshop

The Water JPI held its third Alignment Workshop on the 4th of April 2017 in Stockholm. 

The workshop focussed on understanding what alignment means, planning how to progress alignment using the Thematic Annual Programming instrument and also exploring how Mirror Groups can help to progress alignment nationally. There were 29 attendees at the event.
The objectives of the 2017 Alignment Workshop were to:

  •  Share good practices

  •  Identify the current situation & goals / targets regarding alignment
  •  Progress Case Study 1 “Identification of RDI needs / Discussion of mechanisms for TAP”
