In the context of the 20th EUROPE-INBO conference, InnWater took part in a workshop on innovative water governance, organized by the WaterGovernance2027 synergy group and aiming at supporting basin managers and other stakeholders in finding new ways to tackle water governance challenges.
The workshop, which was held on 18th October 2023, offered and facilitated exchanges of experiences, practices and inputs and benefit from feedbacks in different water governance contexts, for instance at the basin level. It also allowed exchanges on the challenges faced by the governance due to climate change impact and societal issues.
The project was presented by its coordinator Natacha Amorsi (OiEau), and an overview of the case studies was given by Julie Magnier (OiEau).

The WaterGovernance2027 synergy group
It gathers three Horizon Europe projects (GOVAQUA, RETOUCH NEXUS & InnWater; HORIZON-CL6-2022-GOVERNANCE-01-06 - Water governance, economic and financial sustainability of water systems) to set synergies and complementarities in terms of development, research and communication and to join efforts and share experiences on innovative water governance schemes across a variety of European settings.
The synergy group will organise dedicated modules in the EURO-INBO annual conferences in 2023-2026, providing an opportunity for the participants to learn about innovative water governance practices and to provide their feedback. In addition, the projects will disseminate factsheets and policy briefs on topical issues.
