Expert group 1: River and Environmental
Rehabilitation
The focus of this expert group is on the
environmental rehabilitation of large river basins,
with special emphasis on improving the water quality
of the Volga river basin. The group will explore
major problems in water quality management and the
coordination of policies, tools and activities
between diverse groups of stakeholders. Its major
foci will be on the following problems that are
cross-cutting for sectoral expert groups:
-
How to improve coordination of activities of
organisations responsible for water quality and
what tools can be used for this purpose
-
How to effectively incorporate water quality
rehabilitation activities into integrated river
basin management
-
Why are many of the existing strategies and
programmes for water quality rehabilitation in
large river basins not always effective in
practice
-
How to build stable and regular partnerships
between multiple stakeholders, including water
polluters and water users and how to increase
their participation in environmental
decision-making
