A work package housed the six GOVAQUA living labs, where a representative and complementary set of innovative water governance approaches and instruments was further developed, piloted, co-assessed and evaluated, and the production of several other work packages was validated with the key stakeholders.
There was six living labs in river basins, sub-basins or catchments in France, Finland, Spain, the UK, and Romania, and transnationally between Finland and Sweden.
This living lab shares knowledge and develops governance instruments and approaches to achieve the objectives of the WFD and the EGD in water bodies affected by existing hydropower operations.<br /> <br />
This living lab develops further feasible economic instruments for sharing water in times of drought, the associated water governance structure, and the supporting technical tools to help local stakeholders to reach sustainable water use and good ecological status.<br /> Contact:<br /> Marielle Montginoul, French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food, and Environment, France, firstname.lastname@inrae.fr
