Water4All Partnership

The Water4All Partnership – Water Security for the Planet – is a funding programme for scientific research in freshwater. It aims to tackle water challenges to face climate change, help to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and boost the European Union’s competitiveness and growth. It is co-funded by the European Union within the frame of the Horizon Europe programme.

Water4All is structured around five operational Pillars covering the whole research and innovation chain and is supporting a wide portfolio of multi-national and cross-sectoral activities. Pillar C is dedicated to Science – Policy – End-users Interface and consists of four tasks, of which Task C.3 is dedicated to “Fostering capacity development of all actors”. Task C.3 aims to increase capacity building of the water research and innovation community by the implementation of PhD schemes, mobility programmes and vocational training and subtask C.3.2.b which is focused on “Engage and inspire Generation Z towards water challenges and solutions”. One of the approaches of this subtask is to provide networking platform activities for bachelor students participating in water-related tours.
