The closing conference of an EU-funded twinning project on the governance and integrated management of water resources in Morocco takes place on 28 September. The two-year project enabled the transfer of know-how in the field of integrated water resources management in line with the EU Water Framework Directive.

The project worked with the responsible Moroccan institutions, providing them with planning and organisational tools, and building capacity in technical aspects related to the implementation of the Directive, which applies to all European countries.

In addition, the project developed a methodology for the establishment of a management plan meeting WFD criteria for the Sebou river basin, with the lessons learned and actions developed being shared to be replicated on other Moroccan river basins.
