The first Danube Water Forum deals with “The Importance of Water Sector Data in the Digital Age”, discussing efficient, data-driven decision-making and its key importance for smart policies, strong utilities and sustainable services in the Danube region.

Prominent keynote speakers like European Commission's Senior Expert Joachim D'Eugenio will cover all angles of data collection and processing to support policy and business decisions.

The Forum was originally scheduled as a live event in Banja Luka, but in the interest of the safety of participants and speakers it will be held as a three-day series of afternoon online webinars.

Note that the Forum uses the popular conference app Zoom as its online platform. You could principally access all Forum sessions using your web browser, but for the best possible Forum experience please download the Zoom App.
