Welcome to the EPI-WATER Website!

The EPI-WATER Project (suggested pronunciation: / ɪ pɪ aɪ ˈwɔːtə(r)/ ) sets to assess the effectiveness and the efficiency of Economic Policy Instruments in achieving water policy goals, and to identify the preconditions under which they complement or perform better than alternative (e.g. regulatory or voluntary) policy instruments.
