The first “International Workshop on Wastewater Management in the Danube river Basin“ will take place from 28 to 29 November 2017 in Bucharest, Romania. The Workshop is co-organised by the ICPDR, IAWD, the International Association of Water Supply companies in the Danube River Catchment Area, and the World Bank. The event is hosted by the National Administration “Romanian Waters” and supported by the Danube Water Program (DWP, jointly implemented by IAWD and World Bank), the EUSDR PA4, the Global Water Partnership, the EIB, both Directorates General ENV and JRC of the European Commission.
This initiative answers a need by the countries of the Danube River Basin that have expressed their need to more specifically deal with the multi-dimensional problem of the wastewater management under the ICPDR’s umbrella. The workshop aims at bringing together the administration (national and local authorities) and utility sectors together with all relevant stakeholders for joint discussions on the following three pillars:
- Investment & Financing
- Management & Operation
- Innovation & Technology
