Objectives
The Mediterranean Component of the EU Water Initiative (MED EUWI) aims:
- to assist design of better, demand driven and result oriented programmes,
- to facilitate better coordination of water programmes and projects, aiming at a more effective use of existing funds, and the mobilization of new financial resources, where this is required, based on an analysis of gaps, and,
- to enhance cooperation for the proper implementation of these programmes and projects, based on peer review and strategic assessment.
The 2004-2006 Activity Plan of the Mediterranean Component of the EU Water Initiative (MED-EUWI) formulates a set of inter-related actions, defined by: specific targets, expected results and monitoring frameworks and timeframes, and designed to generate the momentum for fulfilling the stated objectives.
