NATIONAL POLICY DIALOGUE IN MOLDOVA
What is a National Policy Dialogue (NPD) ?
National Policy Dialogues (NPDs) are the main operational instruments under the European Union Water Initiative Plus (EUWI+) in Eastern Partnership countries (Result 1: Legal and regulatory frameworks improved in line with the Water Framework Directive, Integrated Water Resources Management and Multilateral Environment Agreements). The objective of National Policy Dialogues is to facilitate the reform of water policies in the countries.
The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) is the strategic partner on Integrated Water Resources Management. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is the strategic partner on Water Supply and Sanitation and also works on the economic and financial dimension of water policies.
