European research partners
Our goal is to enhance the current network of renowned European research institutes that have practical experience in flood and drought risk management in transboundary regional river basins.
The majority of the research will be conducted by this coalition of research institutes, and if necessary, other institutes will be brought in to provide additional expertise for project-specific activities.

"As countries with dense networks of rivers and deltas, we share not only geographical features but also our susceptibility to the effects of extreme weather. And we must cooperate in order to protect ourselves, because our national borders present no obstacle to water."
