Short description

The Danube Transnational programme bodies organise a series of annual events focused on specific themes relevant for the Danube region and to be addressed in the DTP calls for proposals. A specific theme covering several thematic priorities of the programme are selected every year. The thematically-focused annual events aim to become a forum to stimulate discussion on the selected theme with the help of experts, programme stakeholders, interested institutions and organisations, potential applicants and project partners. This forum will allow a better preparation of future calls, fostered innovative proposals, better implementation of projects and more capitalisation opportunities.

Description

In the 2016 edition of the DTP Annual Event, the selected theme is ‘Transnational management, use and valorisation of water related resources’. The theme is reflected in the event title: BLUE DANUBE - Danube Transnational Programme: Key instrument for supporting water as a transnational resource. The event will take place on 29th September in Bucharest, being Romania the charing country of the programme this year. All the details about the event and the registration forms are available in this specific website: www.dtpevent.eu

The selected 2016 theme is conceived from an integrated perspective interlinked with the four priority axes of the Danube Transnational Programme, thus the following aspects of water management will be tackled:

  1. Innovative solutions for Transnational Water Management
  2. Transnational Water Management for a sustainable future
  3. Environmentally-friendly transport systems: waterborne transport
  4. Transnational governance and harmonisation of policies for Water Management

Concerning the format, a general session about the Danube Transnational Programme and how it tackles the selected theme will be followed by parallel workshops covering different aspects of Transnational Water Management. The event participants will have the opportunity to join one of the parallel workshops organised by the JS members along with thematic experts. A joint summary of all the workshops conclusions will be produced and published in the DTP website after the event.

The 2016 Annual Event BLUE DANUBE - Danube Transnational Programme: Key instrument for supporting water as a transnational resource will provide a platform for networking opportunities, exchanging best practices and experience and building partnerships between the main programme stakeholders and other actors representing national, regional and local authorities in the Danube region.  

The event will bring together up to 300 participants from the 14 partner states. In addition to policy makers from the area and the European institutions, the event aims to bring together national and regional institutions, experts and other stakeholders who are interested to make a contribution to the programme.
