Danube River Protection Convention (132.06 KB)
Convention on cooperation for the protection and sustainable use of the Danube river. Signed in 1994 in Sofia and in force since 1998. Wetlands

Dams & Structures
Since the 16th century, people have been changing the natural course of the rivers in the Danube River Basin, mainly for flood defence, hydropower generation and navigation. All these changes affect the ecological quality of the rivers. Changes in the depth or width of a river typically reduce flow rates, interrupting natural sediment transportation as well as the migration routes of animals.
