Discussions have begun on what the EC’s post-2020 Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) will look like, specifically wishing to detail a framework for “future-proof” policy. With that in mind, ambitions regarding environmental and climate protection are due to be heightened responding to international commitments, EU environmental challenges, and above all, changing societal expectations. In response to the post-2020 CAP proposals, the ICPDR has published a Position Paper, outlining our positive response to the proposals, and suggesting a way forward for the Danube River Basin.

Common layers: Danube River Basin District (DRBD), Danube, Tributaries (river basins > 4,000 km²), Lakes (surface area > 100 km²), Lagoons (surface area > 100 km²), Black Sea Coastal Catchments, Canals, National borders, Cities
Scale: 1 : 4,500,000

Inventories and databases are fundamental requisites to assess the human influences to the environment. The ICPDR has been empowered by the Danube countries to organise data collection and to process the received information to serve the decision making processes.
