N-W-TN-1: Improving Water Use Efficiency in Agriculture

By |2022-06-09T18:36:14+03:00November 16th, 2020|

Scarcity of water in Tunisia makes efficient management and optimal allocation of this resource imperative. At the moment, agriculture in Tunisia is accountable for more than 80% of total withdrawals. Improving the efficiency of water use in agriculture is therefore at the heart of this activity.

N-W-JO-2: Explore the potential of Natural Water Retention Measures (NWRM) at the catchment scale

By |2023-06-21T14:27:21+03:00November 16th, 2020|

The rapid urban growth in Jordan is accompanied by a reduction of recharge to the groundwater sources and an increase in storm water flows. Because of a lack of natural infiltration areas for water, there is a severe loss of water yields to groundwater adding to the water scarcity in the country. This activity will identify appropriate Natural Water Retention Measures to be implemented in two pilot zones.

N-W-IL-2: Storm water management and Natural Water Retention Measures

By |2022-04-05T11:39:32+03:00November 16th, 2020|

WES will support Israel to assess and to inventorise or map potential retention areas and to propose a management plan for the utilisation of the retained volumes. It will enrich the knowledge and know-how of storm water management in urban areas, to review best management practices and to learn from designing Natural Water Retention Measures in two pilot cases.

N-W-DZ-2: Potential of Water use efficiency and water saving in domestic water

By |2023-12-28T08:29:11+02:00November 13th, 2020|

The main objective of this activity is to develop effective intervention strategies aimed at reducing domestic water consumption. A methodology will be developed for the implementation of surveys on the efficiency of residential water use and to assess the behaviour of water users in a selected residential area with the aim of guiding the future development of such strategies.
