The project plans to enhance the water resources management in the territories at the Mediterranean Basin level contributing the promotion of a sustainable improvement of governance processes at local level.

It will develop four pilot actions in four countries to allow, on the basis of local experiences, the adoption of appropriate methodologies and technologies for the Water Cycle Management and the models are extendable at a Mediterranean level.

In order to achieve this specific objective, the Water-DROP Project has been designed on the consideration that the main impacts to be produced concern a technical-methodological aspect, an implementation and capacity building aspect, and a normative aspect.
