Description
Water4All’s fifth joint transnational call supports research and innovation to strengthen sustainable water management. Co-funded under Horizon Europe, the partnership brings together 32 funding organisations from 29 countries for this call, with Formas supporting eligible researchers in Sweden. Projects aim to improve knowledge of interactions between surface water, groundwater and ecosystems, and develop advanced monitoring and management tools.
The call addresses integrated water resource management, river basin and groundwater management, water resilience, integrated monitoring and data management, and water-positive solutions. Results should support evidence-based water policies and strategies at global, EU and national levels. Proposals must address at least one of four overlapping themes; multiple themes may be combined. Extreme events and circularity are excluded.
