Green Deal Going Local working group meeting - Shaping a water-resilient Europe together

Water is an essential resource for people, nature and the economy to thrive. Historically it has been a key pillar of social cohesion and a driver of economic development. In recent years the human-water relationship has been shifting. Climate change and environmental pressure are limiting access to clean and safe water, while at the same time floods, landslides and sea-level rise are intensifying, with devastating consequences for people and nature. This session will be a dialogue of the Green Deal Going Local working group of the Committee of the Regions with Members of the European Parliament on the challenges and opportunities to build a water-resilient tomorrow together.
