Summary:
Across the EU there is considerable variation in key determinants of the water cycle, with a diverse range of rates of precipitation, temperatures and water availability. Moreover, each country has developed its own system for managing, operating, recalculating and charging for water. Such factors have an important bearing on the behavior of different actors within the water sector, reflecting issues such as: the degree of private sector involvement; the size, the structure and outlook of water utilities; and incentives for innovation. Equally important, existing water management system are themselves being transformed by factors such as globalization, increased competition for overseas markets, new models of management and regulation, and (not least) a more attuned awareness of environmental limits.
The research sets out:
- To map national capabilities in water-based RTD and innovation in each Member state;
- To examine ways in which innovation (including RTD policy, technology, development and take-up) is socially, culturally and institutionally shaped at national, regional and local levels.
- To explore the extent to which existing RTD frameworks are oriented towards the principles of sustainable development.
- To examine how innovation actions within member states are being influenced by the principles and policies of sustainable development.
- To inform future strategies for further harmonization of water-related RTD and areas best left to national governments (under the subsidiarity principle), taking into account the specific economic, historical, geographical, cultural and political influences on different European water management systems.
