  Project Abstract The aim of this proposed project is to identify the major researchers/research centres private and public in the Water research, Development and Innovation Area not only in Ireland but also at EU levels. By reviewing current water research activities in Ireland as well as EU funded projects under FP6, FP7 and other relevant initiatives (ERAnets, COST actions, EURAQUA, WssTP, etc); a "map" of the Water research capacity and expertise in Ireland and Europe could be compiled. This would be of great benefit to researchers aiming at successfully participating in EU-funded projects under Horison2020, Water JPI, etc. and will facilitate the entry of new participants in Horizon 2020 as well as enhance the networking capacity of Irish researchers.
