Associated Regions
Following a public call and promotional campaign in 2023, DANUBE4all selected five regional authorities/organisations across Europe to take part in the project as Associated Regions.
This status affords these selected organisations the opportunity to access our expertise, knowledge and tools to develop their own roadmap, plan, or project to restore a freshwater ecosystems in their region, supported by €100,000 in grant funding.
Projects were awarded on the 11th October 2023. All Projects run from 1 January 2024 until 30 September 2026.
Our five Associated Region projects are:
-
Jindřichův Hradec Municpal Authority, Czech Republic
-
District Council Cahul, Moldova
-
Kujawsko-Pomorskie Regional Public Authority, Poland
-
MARE-FCUL Seixal Municipality, Portugal
-
Seyhan Municipality, Turkey
We believe that by working together we can achieve our shared goal of restoring freshwater ecosystems and promoting sustainability across Europe.
About
DANUBE4all aims to enhance the free-flowing status of rivers and floodplains, reduce flood and drought risks, and improve sediment and biota continuity through a variety of integrated measures.
In addition to research activities at our three Demonstration Sites, the project will also provide GIS and Citizen Science tools for upscaling restoration actions via ten Synergy Sites and transfer outcomes to five Associated Regions by developing Replication Roadmaps for Restoration Action.
