An important step was taken on 18 December 2012 in developing solutions for the major challenges Europe faces in managing water. The Strategic Implementation Plan (SIP), adopted by the European Innovation Partnership (EIP) on Water chaired by Environment Commissioner Janez Potočnik, sets out priority areas where solutions are needed.

Action Groups will now draw up tools and mechanisms to promote innovations in water policies and technologies. €40 million of research funding will be made available in 2013 to support projects that contribute to the aims of the EIP Water.
