The ICPDR is developing the Danube River Basin Management Plan Update 2015 for the period between 2015 and 2021; and the first Flood Risk Management Plan for the Danube River Basin covering the same period. These plans aim to further protect and enhance the status of all waters and to ensure the sustainable, long-term use of water resources as well as the sustainable management of flood risks.

For the development of the management plans, representatives of civil society and stakeholders are called to contribute their views. The people of the Danube River Basin will be affected by the measures following the plans, and therefore, they are given an opportunity to have a word on their development from the beginning.

As of December 2014, the ICPDR provides the draft management plans for comments. The public is invited to submit comments on the documents below to the ICPDR Secretariat until the 22nd of July 2015. Comments will be used as a basis for a review and finalisation of the plans until December 2015. Please note also the "Voice of the Danube" stakeholder consultation workshop, held in Zagreb 2/3 July 2015. Also, there are two questionnaires to survey your views, one on River Basin Management and one of Flood Risk Management in the Danube River Basin.
