The objectives of this project are to: enable Hungary and Slovenia to institutionalize public access to environmental information and public participation measures in support of reducing transboundary pollution from the discharge of nutrients and toxics into the Danube River; demonstrate how these measures can help Central and Eastern European countries to achieve the important global environmental goals of: the Danube Strategic Action Plan, the Transboundary Pollution Reduction Programme, the Aarhus Convention and the Danube River Protection Convention. The activities conducted in Hungary and Slovenia will serve as a pilot for future efforts to operationalize public involvement in support of pollution reduction in the Danube in other countries in the Danube River basin.
