News & Media

Belgrade, 29 June 2012. This year's Danube Day, the ICPDR gathered some 25 representatives from ministries, NGOs, schools and other educational institutions on a ship travelling from Belgrade to Vienna. Their mission: finding new ways to communicate water management issues to young people. The closing report is now ready for download.

The workshop was held from the 27th to 29th of June, finishing in Vienna on Danube Day. The 25 participants contributed with a lot of enthusiasm and the ICPDR secretariat collected their ideas. They were the basis of an extensive workshop report, which was presented to the Public Participation Expert Group in late November.

As the national experts emphasised, the findings of the report will be used not only for the outreach activities of the ICPDR, but also for national initiatives implemented through the ministries of ICPDR countries. This way, the workshop will have a basin-wide impact on several levels. In addition, the report is provided for download below so that everyone – in particular NGOs and schools – can benefit from it.

If you are interested in which of the proposed activities were actually implemented, then keep visiting the ICPDR website. New developments will be presented here in the news section as soon as information is available.
