    Sustainability for Sustainable Growth:

    How Cohesion and R&D Funding Can Drive Europe's Economic Recovery

    European Union decision-makers are becoming increasingly aware that action is urgently required to ensure that Member States overcome the challenges of improving their water quality and ensuring compliance with EU law. The public hearing explored the vital importance of EU Member States continuing to receive appropriate funding through the Cohesion Fund for investment projects.

    The event is timely with the year 2012 designated as the European Union's "Year of Water." Challenges in relation to the water sector and its role in encouraging sustainable growth, green jobs and economic recovery across the EU have gained increased prominence in the minds of policy-makers.
