The BTO\/WiCE Research Vision for 2024-2029 presents a varied and current programme with innovation, valuable knowledge development and a focus on societal impact. On 1 January 2024, the new BTO\/WiCE programme for 2024-2029 began. The Thematic Research Programme comprises eight themes. In addition, there is the WiCE programme which is directed at the transition to a sustainable, circular economy, with a focus on water, with a six-year plan 2024-2029.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Drinking water utilities in the Netherlands and Belgium have a unique collaboration in the Joint Research Programme (BTO<\/a>) and WiCE<\/a>, which has been operational for a number of decades. In fact, in 2023 the water utilities celebrated the fortieth anniversary of this collective research programme for the drinking water sector. The major societal assignment, in a rapidly changing and increasingly complex world, requires answers to the collective challenges facing the drinking water sector. The BTO\/WiCE programme generates the knowledge needed to meet these challenges. Solid, reliable and top-quality scientific knowledge, innovation and technology. The BTO\/WiCE research also benefits the scientific and professional communities in the water sector, as well as society more generally.<\/p>\n
