Strategic Alliance for integrated Water Management Actions (SAWA)
Start date: May 31, 2008, End date: Dec 30, 2011 PROJECT  FINISHED 

SAWA strives to strengthen the member states for their current implementation of the EU Flood Directive (FD) by developing a transnational implementation strategy. The aim is to adapt existing water management systems to the effects of extreme flood events due to climate change, focusing on sustainable development of society and regional economies. Based on case studies and pilot implementations SAWA will test the new and innovative strategies in Flood Risk Management around the North Sea. The project integrates local, regional and national stakeholders, university and vocational training students, thus the project includes a broad capacity building process incorporating information, education and qualification.
