EUROPEAN WATER INITIATIVE - ERA-NET; Coordination of Member State research programmes in water science and technology for the developing world

Objetivo

The EUWI-ERA-NET is a consortium of 15 ministries, funding agencies and national RTD authorities from 11 European countries. The ERA-NET will establish a framework for long-term communication, collaboration and coordination of member state research programmes on water issues in developing countries, helping to establish EU leadership in harmonisation and alignment of donor actions with developing country partners. This ERA-NET underpins the delivery of commitments made at the Johannesburg WSSD, in particular the research coordination outlined in the EU Water Initiative. Water strongly affects many development issues (health, industrial growth, agriculture, disasters, energy, gender, etc) so the EUWI-ERA-NET is expected to encourage ERA-NET actions on other development issues. An SSA instrument has so far built consensus and a shared vision of what may practically be achieved, respecting national interests and resources.

EUWI-ERA-NET will:
-Establish a Consortium framework using adaptive management, providing for the integration of new partners during the life of the CA
-Engage the main developing country partners and the research community
-Collate and share knowledge from European water research for developing countries
-Improve research and impact management practices
-Transform knowledge into appropriate practice through consultation, building capacity and informing policy
-Develop joint activities and programmes between national RTD programmes and other partners
-Contribute to real improvements in the living conditions for the worlds poor

The EUWI-ERA-NET will work with other ERA-NET's in related fields as one of the building blocks in the process of preparing the Art 185 action focusing on infrastructure research (water, energy, transport) in international development. The EUWI-ERA-NET is an important component in the Implementation Plan of the Water Supply and Sanitation Technology Platform, in particular in working with industry towards MDG delivery.
