The average Latvian thinks that the quality of nature is much higher than anywhere else in Europe. In Latvia, only 33% of surface water has good ecological status, below the EU average.

The LIFE Goodwater Integrated project, funded by the EU, has launched a small grants programme for individuals, NGOs, and municipalities to improve water quality in Latvia. As one of many activities under the eight year project, the grant scheme  is designed both to promote local innovation and to raise awareness and support small scale solutions to improving water quality.
