Review of integration tasks in regional and urban water management within the impact area of the Tisza-Körös Valley Cooperative Water Management System (TIKEVIR)

Keywords: Integrated Integrated watershed management, Tisza-Körös valley, TIKEVIR

Abstract

Last year, the Faculty of Agricultural, Food, and Environmental Sciences at the University of Debrecen organized a conference titled "Trends and Challenges in Regional Water Management" related to the impact area of TIKEVIR. This conference highlighted the critical points of regional water management. In March 2024, in connection with the UN World Water Day, the Faculty of Agricultural, Food, and Environmental Sciences at the University of Debrecen hosted the "Review of Integration Tasks in Regional and Urban Water Management within the Impact Area of the Tisza-Körös Valley Cooperative Water Management System (TIKEVIR)" conference. Similar to last year, where the focus was on identifying tasks, this year the participants created a declaration document addressing integrated regional and urban water management within the TIKEVIR impact area. After professional debate, this document will be forwarded to decision-makers.
