WATER FOR NATURE, WATER FOR LIFE ADAPTING TO EUROPE’S WATER SCARCITY CHALLENGE

Description

This report presents four case studies from across Europe which reveal different water mismanagement issues: illegal, excessive and/or uncontrolled water abstraction for agriculture (Spain; The Netherlands); illegal filling and operation of water reservoirs for agriculture (France); and illegal construction and irregular operation of hydropower plants without considering flows of water necessary for nature and people (Bulgaria). These case studies are only a snapshot of the more profound and widespread management issues across the continent.
