The project aimed among others to cultivate, a culture of cooperation and working relationships among and across actors and sectors directly linked to basin and water management, for a common goal: the sustainable management of the Drin Basin.

…BASED ON SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE DEVELOPED WITHIN THE BASIN…

Bringing together the scientific institutes that support policy making, such as Hydrometeorological institutes, Environmental Protection Agencies, universities etc., to work collectively to establish a common understanding with regard to the state of the Drin Basin, facilitates the building of trust. These also assist the Drin Core Group in making informed decisions.

...FACILITATES BENEFIT SHARING AMONG STAKEHOLDERS.

Bringing together key users and identifying the benefits that could be shared, unlocks the potential for cooperation for the management of the basin. The water and energy sectors have a particular role in this regard. Engaging energy actors from the Riparians in discussions and also involving other major water users, could lead to identifying benefit sharing mechanisms and minimizing risks in the areas of energy production, and basin and flood management. This, in turn, can bring profound positive effects on the ecosystems and a number of economic sectors.
