Applications open on 4 March - EU Green Week 2024 Partner Events on water resilience

Applications for partner events will be open between 4 and 17 March, with events taking place between 29 May and 1 September.

Every year, the EU Green Week is accompanied by hundreds of partner events across Europe and beyond, organised by various institutions, NGOs, business representatives, academia, schools, and local, regional and national administrations, among many others.  

The theme of the 2024 partner events will be water resilience. The objective is to stimulate an EU-wide conversation on the present and future of the EU's water, with an emphasis on fostering awareness and promoting positive, collaborative solutions.  

All kinds of events are welcome, from workshops and public discussions to exhibitions and awareness-raising events for families. Activities can take place at local, regional, national or European level. More information and a timeline are available here. 

As the EU Blue Deal is one of the EESC's flagship initiatives, choosing this theme for the partner events presents a good occasion to communicate the proposals presented in the October 2023 EU Blue Deal Declaration, which calls for a new and ambitious water strategy for Europe, on a par with the EU Green Deal.  (gb)
