02-02-2011

For two years an EU-funded project has been working to help develop Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) in Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia.
 
The €3 million two-year project, Water Governance in the Western EECCA countries has helped promote changes in water law, build institutional capacities, improve technical data exchange and introduce new methodologies.
 
The project has been able to assist each of the partner countries with advice on diff erent aspects of water legislation, Team Leader Steve Warren says in an interview with the ENPI Info Centre. “Five of the six countries have agreed a new system of water quality standards and a sixth, Belarus, is considering the advantages of changing to the new system.”

 

This is part of “The People behind the Projects”, a series of interviews with leaders of EU projects, funded by the ENPI Regional Programme, available in English and Russian
