About
The Bihari-Kis-Sárrét Catchment Community is a young, newly formed cross-border cooperation between nine Hungarian and three Romanian local governments, involving other agricultural, rural development, nature conservation, and water management organizations.
The organization aims to adapt to increasing drought on a landscape scale, primarily through the transformation of agricultural structures and land use practices, the introduction of natural water retention measures, and the improvement of transboundary water resource management practices.
The initiative was launched in 2024 and has since received two technical (not financial) assistance supports. As part of the Communities For Climate project launched by DG REGIO, informal consultations took place between water management institutions and local authorities on both sides of the border. Under LIFE Logos 4 Waters, sites suitable for water retention wereidentified.
We would like to move forward and are looking for professional and regional partners in the EU in the fields of climate adaptation, drought management, water retention and adaptation to extreme water events.
