THE PROJECT MAIN OBJECTIVE
and responsiveness to flood risks in the Cross Border area
Cooperation Programme
The project will focus on challenges of flood risk management via integrated actions for joint coordination and responsiveness to flood risks in the CB area. This area is vulnerable to climate change and its negative impacts, which needs adequate and coordination cross-border management. The territories covered by the project need to increase significantly their adaptive capacity to climate change, i.e. the international river basins of the cross-border rivers:
The effective management of flood risks is of high importance and affects high number of population (175 000 persons) and surface area. The project actions will be directly oriented to joint coordination of five flood risks management plans (FRMP) for international rivers – two plans for Bulgarian territory and three plans for Greek territory.
