DANCERS - Danube macroregion: Capacity building and Excellence in River Systems (basin, delta, sea)

The aim of this project is develop new instruments and tools that will enhance environmental research and promote innovation in Danube Region, including the Danube Delta and the Black Sea. Importantly, the new instruments and tools do not start ab initio but will build on existing projects – covering multiple source of funding (public, private or PPP), whether national, regional or European – which will be identified and clustered.

The project will undertake a critical analysis of what has been achieved so far in the region and will build upon results of achievements to-date, to design innovative solutions to strengthen knowledge transfer in this area. This will be achieved by gathering top level representatives of the academia and business communities as well as decision makers, specialized in various sectors of integrated management of the Danube –Black Sea macrosystem.

Project objectives:

- Undertake a critical analysis of achievements in integrated river – delta – sea management in the Danube – Black Sea Macrosystem, based on a metadata analysis comprising the most significant results and deliverables from major projects/programmes/initiatives performed at regional / national / European / international level and place them within the wider context of international research on this environmental system.

- Analyse the links between the achievements, deliverables and results of the work performed in order to fulfil objective no. 1. and identify training needs and opportunities to meet long-term objectives for sustainable aqueous ecosystem management.

- Define a set of instruments that will enhance environmental research and innovation in the Danube Region, including the Danube Delta and the western Black Sea coast.

As part of the initiatives to disseminate the project DANCERS results  which has the aim to develop new instruments and tools that will enhance environmental research and promote innovation in Danube Region, CORILA organizes, in collaboration with CNR-ISMAR, a Seminar at Palazzo Franchetti - IVSLA - CORILA.
