Water productivity: are we really sure about this?
The first meeting of the Euro-Mediterranean Expert Group took place in Lisbon last month (June). Promoted by the MED SPRING (Mediterranean Science, Policy, Research and Innovation Gateway) project and financed by the 7th FP, it involved 50 experts from 28 partnership organisations based in the Mediterranean.
Three main societal challenges were discussed: water resources, food quality and security, and energy.
The former Director General of the International Water Management Institute discussed the concept of water productivity.
