Danube 4 All

Restoration of river connectivity in the Danube Basin for ecosystems and people

The EU Horizon project DANUBE4all elaborates innovative interdisciplinary restoration pathways for the Danube River Basin by adopting a science-to-people approach, also including societal co-creation, which actively integrates inhabitants’ interests and empowers Danube stakeholders’s including local communities, SMEs, investors, policy makers, and the business sector.

The Blue River Foundation will contribute to this by introducing the Blue Rivers Flag certificate to the Danube River basin, which will motivate communities to foster stewardship for ‘their’ river. With this approach, Blue Rivers Flag will incentivize restoration actions at suitable streams identified by the strategic Danube Basin Restoration Action Plan elaborated by the project. This will also support an upscaling of the Blue Rivers Flag to the whole Danube River Basin, followed by other rivers all over Europe.
