🎯 Cross-border water supply networks

📅 Date: 10 October 2024 

⏰  Time: 10:00-11:00 CET

Join us online for the 20th Beyond Borders: Breakfast Debate on “Cross-border water supply networks”. This session will explore how cross-border cooperation can enhance water supply management, particularly in the EU, where over 60% of the territory lies within transboundary river basins. Rivers like the Danube, Rhine, and Meuse cross multiple national borders, making effective cooperation crucial for water security across Member States. We’ll discuss strategies to reduce conflicts, promote shared benefits, and manage the challenges posed by global warming, such as decreased river flows and increased flood risks. The webinar will also showcase successful examples of cross-border collaboration in water management and highlight the importance of European Territorial Cooperation in ensuring sustainable access to clean water.

Featured speakers include:

🎙️Mr. Beniamino Brunati, DG REGIO, European Commission

🎙️Ms. Hélène Masliah-Gilkarov, Technical Expert for Public Participation & Communication, ICPDR
