In real terms this means collective initiatives between governmental bodies, industry and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) or knowledge institutions that focus on the following subthemes and which may be eligible for subsidies from FDW:

• Improved access to drinking water and sanitation
• Efficient and sustainable water use, particularly within agriculture
• Safe deltas and improved basin management.
