Proceedings: The Implementation Process of the EU Water Framework Directive from International, National and Local Perspectives               Abstracts or support material to IAD supported conference at TU Wien, Jan. 19th and 20th, 2006         Posted by Dr. Meinhard BREILING [2006-05-23 18:49:10]                   Watersheds of the size of the Danube River employ many levels of planning. The Danube is also the largest river in EU territory with 815,000 km² and 18 countries contribute to the Danube River Basin. Thereby the Danube is not only the most international river, but also the most heterogeneous one. Income disparities and standard of life differences are most diverse within the Danube basin and it is difficult to regard the Danube as one entity from the management point of view. What works well in upstream countries does not necessarily work satisfactory in downstream and vice versa. For this ... [more...]                 Links:                   Document(s):
