Main results of the Planning and Initiation Phase of the TRB SDP
Networking:
The stakeholders living in the TRB in all five countries (FR Yugoslavia,
Hungary, Romania, Slovakia and Ukraine) were identified, and networks
were created that gathered the necessary information and identified the
needs for sustainable development during national workshops and the closing
International Conference. National focal points and organizations were
targeted in all the countries.
The Preparatory Project activities were supported by a special website
created and maintained by The Regional Environmental Center for Central
and Eastern Europe in Hungary.
Mapping:
Information sources on legislation, programmes and projects, institutes
and NGOs, as well as publications were collected, mapped and structured
into meta-databases at country level. It will be an important task during
future phases of the TRB SDP to summarise and harmonise the existing meta-databases,
thus serving programming activities, as well as the monitoring and evaluation
of projects within the TRB SDP.
Country
reports:
The identification of recognised needs for sustainable development in
all the TRB countries was carried out and these needs were discussed and
placed into the TRB SDP context during the Closing International Conference
in the REC.
The results of the Preparatory Project form a solid foundation for future
activities both in programming the projects, and in their monitoring and
evaluation. Another key result is the introduction and use of the participatory
approach during the Preparatory Project for TBR SDP activities. This established
the pattern for effective partnerships, creating a win-win environment
for cooperation between stakeholders in the TRB
