The EU funded SWIM-H2020 Support Mechanism, in which MIO-ECSDE was a key partner, drew to a close at the end of April 2019. Achievements and lessons learned from the 3 intense years of working with stakeholders in the Partner Countries were thoroughly discussed at the Closing Conference of the project (Brussels, 8 April 2019) and have been captured in a project summary booklet. The great news is that MIO-ECSDE and its member organization RAED will be part of the follow-up regional EU-funded project Water and Environment Support mechanism (2019-2023). More updates will be shared soon!
