The EU Water alliance sent an open letter to Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the EU Commission to get clarification on the EC work programme 2022 resulting from several meetings with 16 different Commissioners, cabinets and the Slovenian Presidency of the EU.
What is the EU Water Alliance? It is a coalition of European members-based organisations representing the wide range of water stakeholders across the entire value chain (associations, NGOs, universities, large water users, SMEs, water operators and local authorities). In 2020, they released a manifesto to stress the need for a Water-Smart Society in Europe and beyond.
