The ICPDR meets annually to review recent activities and plans for the upcoming year. On the second day the first We Pass Stakeholder Workshop took place. We Pass is an initiative aiming to facilitate fish migration in the Danube River Basin. Their focus is on the preservation and reestablishment of endangered fish species migration routes in the Danube River, its tributaries, and specifically at the Iron Gates.
Talks by experts from the field were held, including two lectures by Thomas Friedrich on our activities to protect the sturgeon. Experts from the Danube Sturgeon Task Force discussed in working groups the key question of the project: How do we get the public to engage with the issues of disruption to fish migration in the Danube River Basin?
