Knowledge Hub for Water

The Knowledge Hub for Water serves as a central repository for scientific evidence and data tools concerning water resources. It is developed through Joint Research Centre (JRC) projects to underpin and integrate EU water policy with other crucial sectoral policies, including agriculture, energy, and climate. The hub emphasizes environmental and health protection, reflecting the objectives of the EU Green Deal, Farm to Fork, Biodiversity, and Zero Pollution Strategies.

This platform provides valuable resources related to various topics, such as water and agriculture, integrated nutrient management, and nature-based solutions. It also features information on specific initiatives like the Nitrates Directive and a Nutrient Toolkit. The hub's content highlights the major impacts of agriculture on water resources and explores potential solutions, making it a key reference for policymakers and researchers.

By offering data and analysis, the Knowledge Hub aims to facilitate informed decision-making and support the sustainable management of water, a critical resource essential for multiple sectors and the preservation of aquatic ecosystems and biodiversity.
