A significant increase in ethnic consciousness, as well as a sharp focus of regional communities on the preservation and development of their national languages and cultural traditions has been observed in the territory of the Budzhak frontier since the late 1980s. The imperative for the development of the Ukrainian post-imperial transformational society in Budzhak has been the synergy of activities of the Albanian, Bulgarian, Gagauze, German, Greek, Jew, Polish, Romanian (Moldovan), Russian, Ukrainian etc. national minorities with the purpose of developing their language and culture (traditions, rituals and beliefs, art and song, folk crafts) and preserving the cultural identity of their ethnic groups. To gain mutual understanding in interethnic relations, the representatives of national diasporas, together with the local educational establishments, take great pains to create optimal conditions for the development of all national minorities, pay enormous attention to educational activities aimed at raising the historical memory of the peoples of Budzhak, promote intercultural dialogue and tolerance as necessary prerequisites for living in multicultural society.

    Building a multi-level governance and coordination system to make Ukraine an active participant in the Danube Strategy process Igor Studennikov Executive Director Centre for Regional Studies, Odessa, Ukraine Member of the Executive Committee of the Danube Civil Society Forum DANUBE FINANCING AND CAPACITY BUILDING DIALOGUE Chișinău , 26-27 October 2017 Ukrainian part of the Danube Region Ukraine, a non-EU country involved in the EU Danube Strategy process, shares significant part of the Danube-Carpathian Region. The Ukrainian part of the Danube Region is formed by four oblasts (regions) – Odessa Oblast, Chernivetska Oblast, Ivano-Frankivska Oblast and Zakarpatska Oblast – occupying 68,100 sq km with a population of 5.9 million. Ukraine and the EUSDR – Attitude • A tool for the sustainable development of the areas belonging to the Ukrainian part of the Danube Region. • A factor able to accelerate Ukraine’s move towards the European integration. Ukraine and the EUSDR – Where we are now? Ukraine has not yet become an active player in the Danube Strategy process: • Doesn’t (co)coordinate any of the 11 priority areas; • At the official level, has not been actively involved in EUSDR key events (PAs’ meetings, annual forums); • Vertical (central government – 4 regions) and horizontal (between the 4 regions) coordination has not yet been ensured; • The poor exchange of information about EUSDR-related activities in which Ukraine is involved. Why? • An effective coordination system of Ukraine’s involvement in the EUSDR implementation has not yet been created. • Political instability – the lack of continuity, especially at the regional level. Ukraine and the EUSDR – Success stories Integrated Tisza River Basin Management Plan (Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Hungary, Ukraine) adopted on 11 April 2011 in Uzhgorod, Ukraine, at the Ministerial Meeting of the Tisza River Basin Countries.

MITIGATION MEASURES DESIGNED TO MINIMISE THE LIKELY ADVERSE TRANSBOUNDARY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF THE PROJECT Table 6.1 presents a suite of environmental mitigation measures included in the detailed design for the full-scale development of the Navigation Route Project. All relevant details and description of these measures can be found in the EIA Report [1]. Table 6.1. A Suite of Planned Environmental Protection and Mitigation Measures Category Description Resource- • The siting of riparian dumpsites in the scarcely used, bush and reed overgrown areas of low Saving ecological that are waterlogged and/or periodically flooded. • The restoration of dumpsites, including improvements in soil fertility and water regime (in order to restore original agricultural uses). • The environmentally reasonable siting of marine dumpsite in a manner that facilitates the minimization of damage to bottom communities, safe disposal of dredging spoils, and prevention/avoidance of re-contamination of estuarine and coastal waters. • The provision of floating navigation signs in order to avoid the use of riparian land for the installation of these signs. Protective • The provision of engineered structures combining both navigation and environmental protection functions: ¾ Flow guide dam at the bifurcation of the Bystre and Starostambulske Branches, designed to regulate the distribution of river flow between the branches and compensate any potential transboundary impact on the hydrological regime of the Starostambulske Branch; ¾ Riverbank strengthening measures designed to prevent/avoid bank erosion along the navigation route; ¾ Retaining dam along the seaward access channel, designed to minimize siltation processes caused by sea storms; ¾ Settling basins and on-site dikes established at the riparian dumpsites in order to clarify generated drainage flow and minimize water contamination in the Danube River.

  • The Terrestrialization of Amphibious Life in a Danube Delta ‘Town on Water’
    Tanya Richardson THE TERRESTRIALIZATION OF AMPHIBIOUS LIFE IN A DANUBE DELTA ‘TOWN ON WATER’ abstract1 The Danube Delta town of Vilkovo is often called the ‘Ukrainian Venice’ because of its 40 kilometers of canals. Many of these canals, however, are rapidly filling in with silt and are often impassible by boat. Tourism entrepreneurs and town administrators have begun lobbying for funding for a large-scale canal restoration project and for the town’s designation as a heritage site. Their tourism-development narratives, however, often overlook or simplify a complex set of social and environmental factors that have shaped residents’ past and present relationships with the Danube River. This article counters this tendency by providing an ethnographic portrait of terrestrialization—a term I use to name the confluence of geomorphological, ecological and social change in Vilkovo—that draws on townspeople’s descriptions of their dwelling practices. It combines insights from amphibious anthropology and social science literature on water infrastructure in order to pinpoint issues that need to be addressed in developing the town’s tourist economy, and makes the case for including studies of terrestrialization as part of an amphibious anthropology. Keywords: terrestrialization, amphibious anthropology, water infrastructure, sediments, Danube, Ukraine, Vilkovo/Vylkove n the far southwest, where the Danube Thames.

  • Statement by the Representative of Ukraine at the Third Joint Meeting
    Statement by the Representative of Ukraine at the Third Joint Meeting of the Danube Commission, International Sava River Basin Commission and International Commission for the Protection of the Danube River (Vienna, 5-6 April 2011) Dear Mister Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Participants and Guests, First of all, I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the host party for an excellent organization of this meeting and opportunity to deliver this speech and present the position of Ukraine regarding those very important issues faced by the Danube Region that are being considered here. Taking this opportunity let me inform you that according to the Order of the President of Ukraine as of December 2010 the Ministry of Transport and Communications of Ukraine is being reformed into the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine. The newly founded Ministry extends its functions and is responsible for the infrastructure development of all the modes of transport, road complex, communications and tourism. This will grant new opportunities for further development of transport and infrastructure complex of Ukraine, including the development of potential of the inland waterways. I’d like to note that the topic and timing of this meeting are very appropriate in the context of crucial challenges that need to be dealt with by the European community in order to ensure the environmentally sustainable development of navigation in the Danube Basin. We are convinced that these challenges can only be tackled through joint effort of all Danube countries and taking into account their legitimate interests that are based on relevant international legal mechanisms.
