European Water Scenarios: from the Mediterranean Sea to Central Asia
30 June 2003 - 1 July 2003
The main objective of the workshop is to mobilize scientists and stakeholders to discuss open research issues on scenarios of water demand and availability at regional scales. The workshop will give the opportunity to:
· make the point on what is going on in Europe on topics which are related to: "Methodologies for Integrated Water Resources Management and Transboundary Issues"; "Water Scenarios for Europe and neighbouring countries" and "New Approaches to Water Stress"; where relevant water research projects have been funded by the EU.,· discuss possible scenarios on a 25 - 50 years scale taking especially into account Europe and neighbouring countries (from Mediterranean to Central Asia including Russia and all NIS). ,· connect different research communities which could co-operate in future research activities as well as favour synergies and avoid overlaps in the preparation of future project proposals
The workshop is supported and organized by the European Commission (DG Research - Direction I, Global Change Ecosystem - Water Cycle and Soil related aspects). It will be held in Brussels on 30th of June - 1st July 2003 (Charlemagne Building - Room S 3 - Rue de La Loi 170).
