Johanna Söderasp
LLD and researcher in Environmental and Natural resources Law, with special focus on water law and governance. My dissertation focused on the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD) and its implementation in Sweden, with special focus on the legal implications and challenges. The WFD prescribes a holistic, integrated and adaptive water governance system, focusing on improving water quality and securing water quantity throughout Europe. The goal is to achive a good ecological and chemical status for surface waters and a good quantitative and chemical status for groundwaters by 2021, or 2027.
