Danube Basin, 29 June 2011. Danube Day 2011 will be celebrated on the 29th of June and calls on people of the 14 countries to get active in protecting water resources. This year, the annual Danube Day will receive a lot of attention, as it coincides with the adoption of the European Union (EU) Danube Strategy. This set of EU policies and initiatives will affect the lives of more than 100 million Europeans who live in the Danube catchment area and neighbouring regions.

Vienna, 24 September 2010. Two Serbian children have won the ‘International Danube Art Master 2010’ competition. The International Master is selected from the winners of the national ‘Danube Art Master’ competitions in 14 Danube Basin countries.

ICPDR Danube Watch: 'Get active for the rivers!' was the call for Danube
Day 2010 and was a theme that people took ‘onboard’
and ran with! We danced, sang, canoed,
climbed, swam, cooked, explored and rapped
for the rivers. The river came to the street
and school went to the Danube. We
celebrated by being active and
by taking action.
