The perception of the System Supply Managers, the Aqua Publica Europea point of view
- Resumen
- Worldwide, 90% of drinking water distribution is covered by public management. In order to undo the preconceived idea that disassociates performance from public management, European public operators have decided to unite their efforts in order to promote public management at a global level and to constantly improve water services whilst respecting sustainable development priorities. That is why they decided to create the Aqua Publica Europea network. Responsible management that is effective while truly respecting and protecting hydraulic resources, needs a long-term vision that covers water patrimony, a concerted vision of the different uses of water (agriculture, industry¿) together with a democratic control characterised by active participation by citizens and a reinforced role of the users in its governance. <br/> The European water companies and public authorities are aware of these challenges and wish to become actively involved in a global water policy primarily based on access to drinking water for all. It is time to fully embrace the responsibilities concerning water management as a public good.
