EU Water Governance

EU Water Governance refers to the policies, regulations, and organizational structures that manage water resources across European countries. It aims to ensure water quality, availability, and sustainability by coordinating efforts among governments, agencies, and stakeholders. The EU sets common standards, such as the Water Framework Directive, to promote efficient use, protect ecosystems, and prevent pollution. This governance approach fosters cooperation, transparency, and long-term planning to address challenges like climate change, pollution, and water scarcity, ensuring safe and sustainable water for all citizens and ecosystems within the EU.
