“netWORKS“ – Social-ecological Regulation of Network-Related Infrastructure Systems: Water

• Shrinking cities but also processes of liberalization and deregulation as well as privatization and commercialisation of public tasks influence the organization and structure of water supply and sewage disposal.
• The netWORKS project aims to develop concepts for innovative and sustainable solutions in these fields.
• On the basis of practical experience, netWORKS develops decision-making aids for municipalities responsible for defining and providing basic public services.
