2018 Water JPI Workshop on Strategy for International Cooperation

The Water JPI, as part of its supporting EU-funded Coordination Support Action IC4Water, is looking at opportunities to develop a common strategy for international cooperation. To progress this work, a workshop was held in Vienna on 19 September 2018. This workshop was targeted at other international initiatives, policy-makers and relevant stakeholders to discuss the current state of play of international cooperation, exchange views and share experiences to identify common barriers and practices and find possible solutions.
A survey undertaken in April 2018 by the Irish Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on the current state of play of international cooperation among relevant EU initiatives informed the discussions of this first workshop.
the outcomes of the workshop and the findings of the survey mentioned above will inform a second workshop which will take place in 2019 and targets the research community engaging in
the Joint Actions implemented by the initiatives involved in international cooperation. More information on the Water JPI website.
