Water Knowledge Europe 2022, took place in Brussels last October organized by Water Europe, it had 200 participants during the three days of the event and its side-workshops. The event’s main programme took place on 18 October, with speakers from the European Commission guiding the audience through the opportunities for water in the new Horizon Europe Work Programmes 2023-2024 and offering tips on how to shape successful project consortia. Special highlight of the programme was ‘The integration of the gender dimension into R&I’ workshop held at the end of the day that demonstrated how addressing the gender dimension in a project can make a difference in the evaluation of a whole project proposal.

At the meeting of the Working Group on Water and the Sustainable AGRIFOOD system led by BIOAZUL, our colleague Rafael Casielles guided the meeting where the team’s work during the year was reviewed with such important milestones as the publication of the White Paper on the Possible Effects of the Regulation EU 2020/741 on minimum requirements for the reuse of water in the agri-food value chain and strategies for its implementation and the workshop that was organized in June of this year.
