Antonia Lorenzo (Bioazul), together with Alfieri Pollice (IRSA-CNR) organised on the 22nd of June the second virtual meeting of 2020 of the Water & Agrifood Working Group attended by 39 participants. The scope of this working group focuses on good practices and innovative solutions to improve sustainable exploitation and stewardship of water sources by involving the water sector, the food industry and the agricultural sector in finding synergies that boost cooperation and exchange of knowledge between these relevant sectors.
Furthermore, the Working Group seeks to pave the way for the implementation of appropriate solutions by improving the framework conditions (e.g. better regulations, funding, water quality and quantity, social and economic aspects, etc.).
The specific objectives for the current period are:
The last period, the working group has continued working on the “know your cluster” activities, including presentations of members in the project meetings (AMIGO CLIMATE, FEUGA, BIOAZUL, Vlakwa/VITO, AQUAQ, CWP among others).
They also have increased the interaction with other Working Groups, the Vision Leadership Teams and external initiatives to find synergies with the Water & Agrifood WG. Several meetings have taken place to strengthen the relation between all these groups.
Furthermore, the working group worked in the co-organization of a workshop. The WG co-organised with SUWANU EUROPE project and the EIT Food a workshop during the EIP Water event that took place in Zaragoza (Spain) the 11th of December 2019.
