| Résumé : | Shortage of water may be the most urgent problem currently facing some European countries. Changes in population distribution and density are key factors influencing the quantity of waters resources. Outbreaks of waterborne diseases continue to occur across Europe, and minor supply problems are encountered in all countries. Inadequate sewerage systems are a significant threat to public health. Numerous chemicals are found throughout the aquatic environment. Eutrophication is a major threat to European surface waters. Considerable evidence has accrued linking the quality of bathing water with minor illnesses. Additional efforts are required to sustain the European Region's water resources and to provide safe water. Partnerships and cooperation are needed between the environment and health sectors at all levels of government to disseminate technology, to improve management and to improve financial and institutional support to ensure access to safe water and sanitation for all.
