How to get closer to a river like the Danube which touches so many people and countries?
The idea of the Danube Box is to see a river and its basin as a unit and to consider all its important aspects, like ecology, culture, history and economy. Even though the Danube is the tie of 19 countries and more than 81 millions of people, each country tends to watch its national stretch of the river. With the Danube Box the International Commission of the Danube River (ICPDR) wants to move the integrating features of the Danube into the spotlight.
