PROJECT OVERVIEW<\/div>\n

Project Description<\/h2>\n

The ResWater project aims to strengthen urban water resilience among Mediterranean partners by exploring small-scale and decentralized Non-Conventional Water Resource (NCWR) technologies that reduce reliance on traditional freshwater sources.<\/p>\n

The project will assess urban water demand hotspots, examine future water supply risks, and support the development of resilient Urban Water Management Plans that enhance long-term water security, stakeholder engagement, and knowledge sharing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
