Water Resilience Strategy

The Water Resilience Strategy seeks to improve water management across the EU Member States. It recognises that water-related disasters like floods and droughts, water inequalities, and water stress will only worsen with climate change, and harm Europe’s citizens and businesses.
Water Framework Directive

Since 2000, the Water Framework Directive is the main European law on water protection. It mandates Member States to put in place River Basin Management Plans, at international level if relevant, to protect and restore water bodies to reach a good status by 2027.
