Guidelines & recommendations for regulation and policy instruments

Provides recommendations for revision of legislation, development of co-production strategies and new governance arrangements, according to the reality of each case study (T5.4), receives input from T6.3 and T4.4. This deliverable, as well as D.5.8, is expected to contribute to the implementation, at the local and regional level, of a range of EU Policies, including the EU Adaptation Strategy to Climate Change (2013), the Roadmap 2050 for a Low Carbon Europe (2011), the EU Action Plan for the Circular Economy (2017), the Proposal for Regulation of Water Reuse (COM2018/337) and the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC), as well as its daughter directives. Drawing from representative case studies, the recommendations are expected to be applicable to other EU State-Members beyond those directly involved in the Project. They will also consider the health, social and economic implications of the recent Covid-19 pandemic in each of these case studies, some of which are located in the most affected EU Member states.
