In 2020, the European Commission published the revised Action Plan of the EU Danube Strategy. In doing so, the strategy took stock of its achieved goals and new challenges. Likewise, the new Action Plan marked the relaunch of collaboration with stakeholders from the public and the private sector at all levels.
Systemic crises such as climate change, the COVID-19 pandemic or the war in Ukraine reiterated the importance of cooperation.
Hence, the 9th Danube Participation Day addresses multi-sector stakeholder cooperation for a resilient Danube Region. The conference aims at making the case for participatory governance as an essential tool for resilient development. Establishing trust between state and non-state actors and implementing strong collaboration ties helps societies to respond quickly to crises and pro-actively develop solutions.
