    Danube Day 2012

    Danube Day was a superb celebration of everything achieved in the 18 years
    since the signing of the Danube River Protection Convention. Whether you
    were one of the hundreds of thousands who participated; one of millions who
    heard about it; or work for one of the 900 organisations involved, you helped
    spread Danube solidarity through more than 350 individual events. Bridging
    national and institutional boundaries, the 14-country festival demonstrates
    that the region is strongest when it works together. It reminds us of the
    value of rivers, renews our resolve to look after them and, with so many
    events focused on enjoying rivers, helps us reclaim them!
