We are happy to announce that a  new brochure on projects relevant to the water quality of the Danube Region has been compiled and printed with the help of the project teams.

 

The brochure is available here.

 

EUSDR Water Quality Priority Area has been active in supporting the preparation of projects: in several cases supported them technically, assisted in finding partners, introduced the project ideas at the Steering Group meetings and to the national representatives and assisted in obtaining letters of recommendations. During project implementation the Priority Area followed the projects, participated at several project events, and aimed to seek the projects’ results assisting that their outputs could be built into the decision-making process.

 

EUSDR PA4 cooperates with projects related to different water management issues. While the projects address different issues like coordinating sediment management; preparing a Tisza-Danube integrated action plan to eliminate plastic pollution of rivers; managing and restoring aquatic ecological corridors for migratory fish species; tackling hazardous substances pollution in the Danube River: they seek for synergies for the common benefit. Apartfrom projects financed by the DTP, (namely: Danube Hazard mc3, IDES, SIMONA, MEASURES, Tidy Up, SaveGreen, LifelineMDD); projects financed by other programmes, such as INTERREG Central Europe, Horizon2020, LIFE and several CBC programmes are also important for the work of the PAs and these projects (such as DEEPWATER-CE, FRAMWAT, MICACC) were also included. Some projects (for example DanubeSediment, MEASURES, WE PASS, Danube Hazard m3c) were also providing additional input to the Danube River Basin Management Plan (DRBMP) Update 2021 together with the Danube Flood Risk Management Plan (DFRMP) Update 2021 adopted by the strategic partner of EUSDR PA4, the International Commission for the Protection of the Danube River.
