Water is a common good, and access to it is a fundamental human right. Water needs to be managed in a socially responsible way to ensure everyone has a fair share, and to secure its conservation for the benefit of future generations.

Aqua Publica Europea works to help its members realise the right to water, and reconcile it with environmental and financial sustainability. 

The management of water as an essential resource belongs to the public domain. Water management must be organised and supervised by public authorities and be based on a multi-stakeholder approach.

Aqua Publica Europea works to promote transparent and accountable water services, that allow for the participation of all relevant stakeholders, from civil society to other economic sectors.

Water is the source of all life. The availability of sustainable and wholesome water supplies to serve domestic, industrial and agricultural needs must be guaranteed. Water resources must be protected for the benefit of present and future generations.

Aqua Publica Europea works to promote cost-effective and long-term solutions that preserve the natural balance of the environment and are socially responsible.
