Event Seminar on Monitoring and Assessment of Transboundary Waters

The Seminar is intended for transboundary water managers, representatives of established joint bodies, and experts with a role in monitoring and assessment of transboundary waters from governmental and non-governmental organizations and the private sector.

It aims to (a) exchange experiences among EU countries with the implementation of monitoring programmes according to the EU Water Framework Directive; (b) share applicable lessons learned with non-EU countries; and (c) learn about experiences, good practices and challenges in non-EU countries.
