DIGITAL-WATER.city - Leading urban water management to its digital future

Half of all people on Earth now live in cities. Within two decades, nearly 60 % of the world’s population will be urban dwellers and cities need to take steps to better manage their water resources. The protection of public health, the modernisation of water infrastructure, as well as the involvement of users in water management demand an innovative approach. Digitalisation emerges as a viable solution. The EU-funded DWC project aims to promote integrated water management in urban and peri-urban areas of five big EU cities with the support of data and smart digital solutions. It will develop digital solutions to face gaps related to ICT governance, system ability and cybersecurity topics.
