Mapping the Danube Region - Regional Insights into Wastewater and Stormwater Challenges in Small Settlements
On 22 October 2025, 13:30 - 15:00 CET, the Interreg Danube Region project D-CLEAN will hold it´s first webinar in a series of six, called "Mapping the Danube Region - Regional Insights into Wastewater and Stormwater Challenges in Small Settlements".
The premiere session will present key findings from the regional baseline analysis, including:
-
An overview of existing infrastructure, technologies, and practices
-
Identification of strengths and weaknesses in current systems
-
A review of national policies and management plans
The insights shared will lay the foundation for introducing nature-based solutions to improve water quality and support sustainable development in the DRB.
D-CLEAN has recruited a roster of highly competent presenters and panelists from academia, industry and NGOs. During the webinar it will be possible to post questions to presenters and panelists and gather valuable know-how for potential follow-up action under individual specific circumstances.

More about the project
Project Goal: Smart, Sustainable Wastewater and Stormwater Management Across Borders
The project aims to tackle the critical issue of wastewater (WW) and stormwater (SW) pollution in the Danube River Basin (DRB). By raising awareness, building capacity, and identifying, testing, and showcasing practical solutions, we strive to improve water quality within the DRB. Our focus is on promoting sustainable WW and SW management practices that are resilient to climate change and equipping stakeholders with the necessary tools.
The D-CLEAN project tackles water pollution in the DRB by promoting:
- Sustainable wastewater and stormwater management, tailored for small settlements.
- Nature-based solutions (NBS) that are cost-effective, climate-resilient, and environmentally friendly.
- Capacity-building and knowledge-sharing to empower decision-makers and practitioners.
- Transnational cooperation for shared learning and strategic innovation.
Together, we aim to improve water quality and create a resilient, cleaner future for the Danube.
