WATER Development Resources Opportunity Policies for the water management in semi-arid areas (Water-DROP)
Date du début: 17 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 16 déc. 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Project in brief Population growth, rapid urbanization and industrialization, the expansion of agriculture and tourism, as well as climate change are all factors which put water under increasing stress. The scarcity of this vital resource for human and social development has placed water at the top of the agenda of many Mediterranean countries. Most of the water problems are due to the mismanagement of water resources and to the incoherency among different policies impacting water conservation. In addition, the dialogue between water stakeholders, users and central governments shall be fostered in order to ensure more integrated approaches to developing and managing water resources. To address these challenges, the Water-DROP project has been designed on the assumption that the main issues to be tackled for efficient water management concern technical-methodological, capacity-building, and normative aspects. Specific objective To develop an integrated water cycle management approach at the Mediterranean Sea Basin level for managing the related cross-sector issues through the enforcement of multi-stakeholder partnerships, in particular with public and private actors Expected Results: • A Decision Support System integrated by a Geographical Information System (DSS-GIS) for the water cycle management adopted and implemented in the four target areas • Normative proposals on water management developed leading to the progressive harmonization of the legislation on the issue at Mediterranean level • A better Water Cycle Management achieved in the target areas including: reused water in Palestine, economically improved management of the Italian Torre Flavia area (Rome), more efficient water use in three Jordan communities of the Al-Balqa governorate and reduction of water pollution risk in selected Lebanese rivers and sea-related areas
