Governance & policy

Here we:

discuss how to actively use and further develop the Multi-Actor Platforms (MAP) approach with actors at primarily case study level and to some extent national levels as a base for executing the FAIRWAY project in close dialogue and involvement with key actors to ensure relevancy and maximum impact.
examine the coherence and consistency of EU directives and policies, how they apply to farm water management in order to realize objectives from farm scale to national scale and EU scale and how to overcome possible shortcomings;
integrate and synthesise the results from the other parts of the research programme, to identify key options for protection of drinking water resources against diffuse pollution of nitrate and pesticides from agriculture and to analyse the implications of these options for EU policies and practice;
