Urban water indicators systems

Resumen
The UEE -Urban Ecosystem Europe -Report provides an integrated assessment of the urban environment in the main and bigger European cities and focuses on their local responses capacity and needs. The set of indicators (25) has been selected focusing to the main scope of the survey (benchmarking EU cities) so the data availability is a relevant criteria. It has been taken into consideration as much as possible the most valid and recent ¿common¿ and ¿integrated¿ European local Indicator systems and related research projects. The policy framework considered is represented by the Aalborg Commitments, the EU Thematic Strategy on Urban Environment, the Leipzig Chart. The UEE set of 25 Indicators includes 2 Water related indicators: ¿Domestic water consumption¿ and ¿Inhabitants served by water treatment plants¿. The report provides interesting data about 32 EU cities performances on this field. The concrete experience of collecting data directly with cooperation of the cities open the way for Indicators improvement and for further research and dissemination about local good practices behind the best results.
