Description: Das Projekt "Interactions entre gestion du cycle urbain de l'eau et technologies de l'environnement dans une perspective de developpement durable (FRA)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Ecologic, Institut für Internationale und Europäische Umweltpolitik durchgeführt. Objective: To assess the influence of urban water management systems (encompassing institutional, economic and technical aspects) on the definition of sustainable development objectives; to identify the relations between water management systems and public R and D water programmes at the national and EU levels. General Information/Objectives: To assess the influence of urban water management systems (encompassing institutional, economic and technical aspects) on the definition of sustainable development objectives; to identify the relations between water management systems and public R and D water programmes at the national and EU levels. DESCRIPTION: The concept of water management system is developed to cover all technical, economical, and institutional aspects regarding the management of drinking water (purification and distribution), domestic and industrial waste water (collection and treatment), and storm water (collection and treatment) networks. The characteristics of - and interactions between - sustainable development, national innovation systems, and R and D processes are clarified with respect to water issues. A major task of the research is to determine their specific national features through case studies in five countries (Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain). The main components of the research are: i) to assess water management systems' impacts on the definition of environmental objectives based on sustainable development approaches in the five Member States under analysis; ii) to examine how these water management systems may influence the production and diffusion of appropriate water technologies according to sustainable development criteria; iii) to analyse the impacts of water management systems on the water R and D public programmes in the five Member States; iv) to examine types of contracts, monitoring and control processes, aiming to balance the negative effects of water management systems on water R and D processes. Those research tasks are intended to clarify to which extent the interactions between water management systems and national innovation systems in the five Member States may support or retard a converging process towards a European environmental water policy.
