The project team and its partners are working together to improve the management of water resources in Kosovo. Better protection of river ecology and groundwater is urgently needed in this country and so we are aiming to reinforce its institutions and the skills of Kosovo experts in this field. Details about our partners can be found by clicking on the links at the top of this page.
One of our main aims is to promote knowledge and dialogue on technical issues in the ‘Drini i Dardhe’ River Basin and this web site will help keep you informed about the project’s agenda and events to come.
The project is working with its Kosovo partners to prepare its accession to the European Union (EU). EU Directives in the field of water and flooding are used as a guide to set procedures and develop economic, legislative and other instruments. This website is still under
