To manage our land and water environments sustainably and balance social, environmental and economic requirements is one of the key challenges we face today.

Aspirations

Topic area direction and strategy

This topic area is well established in the water environment and we look to strengthen links between WFD and FRM by being active in both arenas. We are keen to support knowledge exchange through facilitated workshops and dissemination events and will be looking for opportunities to use these skills in this arena. In particular we are investigating:

Soils

We are keeping a watching brief on the EU Soils Directive and are reviewing whether this is an area in which SNIFFER could usefully be involved.

Cross Cutting Issues

We are keen to support networking across boundaries and are looking to provide a forum to discuss links between climate change and WFD implementation and flooding issues. Please contact us if this is something you would be interested in hearing more about.
