India-EU Water Partnership

15.07.2020

The European Union and its Member States have a comprehensive partnership with India going back more than fifty years. There is no sector of the economy and no aspect of society, which has not been enriched by our exchanges. The EU and India collaborate closely on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and in fighting climate change.

A Memorandum of Understanding between the Republic of India and the European Union on an India-EU Water Partnership(IEWP) was signed in 2016, with the objective to strengthen the technological, scientific and management capabilities of India and the EU in the field of water management.

The Action Plan developed jointly under the India-EU Water Partnership has focused on some of the aspects of major concern for India's water future and good progress has been achieved.
