This workshop focuses on discussing nature-based solutions (NbS) and policy recommendations for the Danube and Black Sea region. The event is organized by the Association of Danube Municipalities “Danube” (ADRM), GeoEcoMar, the Ministry of Environment, Water and Forestry of Romania (MEWF), the Executive Agency “Maritime Administration” (EAMA) and Steinbeis Europa Zentrum (SEZ) as EcoDaLLi Partners in collaboration with the DaWetRest project.
As part of the EcoDaLLi project, “Coordination and Support Action” (CSA) of the Danube and Black Sea Lighthouse, the objective is to develop an integrated approach to support innovators in implementing NbS to protect and restore the ecosystem of basins and biodiversity.
To achieve this objective, the project developed:
- A methodology to evaluate and implement NbS in innovative projects;
- A catalog of NbS best practices along the Danube;
- Policy recommendations to build an environment conducive to the application of NbS.
This workshop aims to gather feedback from key stakeholders to ensure that these tools and recommendations are practical and adapted to local contexts. The DaWetRest project, an “Innovation Action” of the Lighthouse, will present its activities and demonstration site near Burgas, showing an innovative action for freshwater restoration, as well as its regulatory context.
The workshop will also explore how to adapt these findings, based on an in-depth analysis of the Danube basin, to the Black Sea and address the following key questions: How can NbS contribute to making the Danube and Black Sea more resilient? How can existing initiatives in both regions work together to support NbS? How can citizens, especially young people, engage in the implementation of NbS?
The workshop will be held at the Free University of Burgas (Bulgaria) and will be in English. Registration is open until October 11, 2024. Places are limited.
