EESC: EU Must Treat Water as a Strategic Resource
The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) is urging the EU to declare water a strategic resource, calling for a comprehensive "Blue Deal." In a plenary session, the EESC highlighted growing water scarcity and pollution as major threats to Europe's economy and citizens. The committee is advocating for a new EU water strategy that prioritizes resilience, sustainable management, and equitable access. This position will inform future legislative proposals from the European Commission on water policy.
EU advisory body calls for an urgent "Blue Deal" to secure Europe's water supply for the future.
