  • First Online:
Human Impact on Danube Watershed Biodiversity in the XXI Century

Abstract

In 2002 Ukraine ratified the Convention on Protection of the Danube River (signed 29 June 1994) and is one of the Parties (14 countries and European Commission) of the Convention. In 1999 Ukraine supported the establishment of the International Commission of Protection of Danube River (ICPDR), which is the co-ordination and implementation body of the Convention and EU Water Framework Directive.
