Mekong river Basin Development Plan (BDP) Programme – Study visit to the Danube River Basin

Mekong river Basin Development Plan (BDP) Programme – Study visit to the Danube River Basin

The Mekong River’s Basin Development Programme (BDP) 2011-2015 was designed to facilitate and support the implementation of the Basin Development Strategy. The 2012 work plan included a study visit to the Danube Basin for ‘technical middle managers’ involved in the implementation of the Strategy.

The objective of the study visit to the Danube Basin was to learn from the planning experience of the International Commission for the Protection of the Danube River (the Commission) to support basin planning in the Mekong Basin, regarding:

1) the implementation of the Basin Development Strategy, in particular the priority actions for basin management such as the development of an environmental baseline, and

2) the detailed design of the next stage of basin planning, including a broader range of basin-wide development scenarios.

Fresh Thoughts organised the study visit and prepared background material in the run-up to the event.
