The deadline for proposals from businesses, groups, and researchers interested in this initiative and who have expertise in sustainable water management is March 31, 2023.
Several organisations are putting out a call for innovations for businesses, organisations, and researchers with expertise in sustainable water management around the world, particularly in Africa, as a lead-up to the workshop on innovation in water quality monitoring and assessment that will take place from June 14 to 16, 2023, in Italy. The proposals should be submitted by March 31, 2023.
It is decided to highlight the projects of water specialists. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and the World Water Quality Alliance jointly issued a call for innovations (WWQA).
The Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission, in collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency, is another organisation that is supporting the project, which is centred on monitoring and evaluating water quality (IAEA).

Projects should therefore emphasise methods for data mining and visualisation as well as integrated geophysical, space, and terrestrial measurements to track and evaluate water quality.
Initiatives should also show how to combine data from non-traditional sources, such as citizen science, remote sensing, modelling, etc., to determine the water quality of a body of water.
The deadline for proposals from businesses, groups, and researchers interested in this initiative and who have expertise in sustainable water management is March 31, 2023.
The Workshop on Innovation in Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment, which will be held from June 14 to June 16, 2023, in a hybrid format at the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) in Ispra, Italy, will reveal the projects that were chosen from the call for expressions of interest.
The June workshop aims to support the private sector (solution providers) in adapting their solutions to operational realities, to assist academia in focusing research on the most pertinent topics for realistic solutions, and to identify and promote innovative approaches and tools that increase data adoption and use.
These objectives are in addition to promoting innovative approaches and technologies for the collection, management, and use of water quality data.
