• Technical guidelines on the N(s)WRM where different measures would
get the technical and ecological background and “how to do?” questions
would be answered.
• The GIS based analytical tool could be developed toward DSS for the
planners.
• Demonstration sites (existing or on-going projects) in the CEE could be
developed by adding the hydrological end ecological monitoring and
putting them “on-line” for the global audience.
• Analytical study on key quantitative indices for checking the
effectiveness of combined N(s)WRM in RBM planning.

Resource Efficiency and Raw Materials
• Call for ideas – intended to identify innovative and
research areas
• Sumbitted: 28 February 2015
• General information:
• Main target area: naturebased solutions
• Duration: 36 months
• Total estimated budget: 2.400.00 EUR
