The European Commission has launched 2 calls for evidence to inform its EU Water Resilience Strategy and the European Ocean Pact that are expected to be adopted by the end of 2026. The strategies aim to strengthen Europe's leadership in ocean and water research, innovation and technology, while boosting competitiveness, resilience, and strategic autonomy.
- The call on Oceans covers the Ocean R&I strategy that focuses on protecting and restoring marine ecosystems, advancing ocean observation, and developing a sustainable blue economy.
- The call on Water Resilience adresses freshwater management, water efficiency and reuse, and innovative solutions for sustainable water use.
The deadline for feedback on both consultations is 2 August 2026.
Researchers and research institutions with expertise in the fields of ocean and water research in particular are invited to contribute to these consultations.
