Transboundary Water Management UNESCO International Hydrological Programme Transboundary Water Management Christine A. Iskandar Consultant UNESCO-IHP UNESCO contribution to the World Water Forum on Cooperation around Water Conflicts UNESCO is a partner of the Forum since Marrakech and the World Water Council (WWC) Since the 3rd World Water Forum in 2003, UNESCO has been designated as the leader of the themes on transboundary water management (Istanbul Forum), water cooperation and peace building. At the 6th World Water Forum, UNESCO with INBO coordinates the Priority for Action 1.5 « contribute to cooperation and peace » The Preamble to the Constitution of UNESCO declares that ‘since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defenses of peace must be constructed’ CULTURE OF PEACE The opening lines of UNESCO's The purpose of the Organization Constitution are engraved in ten languages is: "to contribute to peace and on a stone wall in the Square of Tolerance security by promoting collaboration among nations through education, science and culture in order to further universal respect for justice, for the rule of law and for the human rights and fundamental freedoms which are affirmed for the peoples of the world, without distinction of race, sex, language or religion, by the Charter of the United Nations’. The challenge we all have How to put “water” in the minds of people?

UN GA Resolution 63/124 2008 In this context, UNESCO supported the development of the UNILC Draft Articles on the Law of Transboundary Aquifers. In December 2008, the UN General Assembly (GA) adopted Resolution A/RES/63/124 on the law of transboundary aquifers. In this Resolution, the UN GA notes that ‘the subject of the law of transboundary aquifers is of major importance in the relations of States’. The UN GA will consider the Format of the Draft Articles at its next session in November this year. ISARM OBJECTIVES Prepare the inventory of the transboundary aquifers of the world (Transboundary Aquifers Atlas published in 2009). Promote the cooperation among experts from the different countries that share transboundary aquifers. Promote scientific, legal, socio-economic, institutional and environmental assessment of internationally shared aquifer resources. Disseminate the lessons learnt from Case Studies.

  • The Experimental Watersheds in Slovenia
    THE EXPERIMENTAL WATERSHEDS IN SLOVENIA Mojca Šraj, Simon Rusjan, Sašo Petan, Matjaž Mikoš, Andrej Vidmar, Mitja Brilly University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Jamova 2, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia [email protected] Abstract Experimental watersheds are critical to the advancement of hydrological science. By setting up three experimental watersheds, Slovenia also obtained its grounds for further development of the science and discipline. In the Dragonja experimental watershed the studies are focused on the afforestation of the watershed in a mediterranean climate, on the Reka river the water balance in a partly karstic area is examined, and on the case of the Glinščica stream the implications of the urban environment are studied. We have obtained valuable experience and tested new measuring equipment in all three experimental watersheds. Keywords: experimental watershed, measurements, hydrology, afforestation, karstic area, urban area, Slovenia. 1 INTRODUCTION The experimental watersheds of the Dragonja, Reka and Gradaščica with Glinščica rivers are nowdays critical to the advancement of hydrological science, not only in Slovenia, but also on international level. Those watersheds have been equiped with modern measuring equipment for precise measurements of precipitation, intercepted precipitation, discharges, erosion and water quality. Thus contemporary experimental base was established used for scientific research and at the same time provided support to the teaching and studying process. The Dragonja river basin is situated on the border between Slovenia and Croatia. Due to political and social circumstances and poorly managed agriculture in the past, the catchment area has been depopulated in the past decades, leaving the forests to develop in the abandoned agricultural fields.

  • Permanent Mission of the Republic of Croatia to the International
    Permanent Mission of the Republic of Croatia EF.DEL/10/07/Corr.1 to the International Organizations in Vienna 23 January 2007 ENGLISH only Statement made by Mr. Zdravko KRMEK, State Secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management (Session IV of the 15th OSCE Economic and Environmental Forum, Vienna, 23 January 2007) Mr. Chairman, in the framework of our today's discussion I would like to stress the importance of a consultation between neighbouring states and at the regional level when combating soil degradation in the aim to avoid social problems linked to sustainable development. The Republic of Croatia, as probably a number of other states who have been part of former federations or composite states, has interesting experience in the field: rivers or river basins of internal nature are now of international character. This requires a number of interstate agreements on integral water management. One of the best examples for good cooperation on the regional level is without any doubt the Framework Agreement in Sava River Basin signed in 2003 by four countries of the Former Yugoslav Federation: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Slovenia and Serbia with the participation of international partners including the Stability Pact and the OSCE. This initiative is today better known as Sava River Initiative and the first experience shows that this is a very good basis for further cooperation between these four countries. With the Republic of Slovenia there is also the Agreement of Integral Water Management, signed in 1997, as well as with Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1996. With the Republic of Montenegro a preparation of such an agreement is in final phase, as well as with the Republic of Serbia.

  • Neolithisation of Sava-Drava-Danube Interfluve at the End of the 6600–6000 BC Period of Rapid Climate Change> a New Solutio
    Documenta Praehistorica XLIII (2016) Neolithisation of Sava-Drava-Danube interfluve at the end of the 6600–6000 BC period of Rapid Climate Change> a new solution to an old problem Katarina Botic´ Institute of Archaeology, Zagreb, CR [email protected] ABSTRACT – The idea of the Neolithisation of the Sava-Drava-Danube interfluve has undergone very little change since S. Dimitrijevi≤'s time. Despite their many shortcomings, new archaeological exca- vations and radiocarbon dates of Early Neolithic sites have provided us with new insight into the process of Neolihisation of this region. Using the recently published work by B. Weninger and L. Clare (Clare, Weninger 2010; Weninger et al. 2009; Weninger et al. 2014) as a starting point, the available radiocarbon and archaeological data are used to build up a time frame comparable to the wider region of Southeast Europe and climate conditions for specific period. The results fit the model of Neolithisation well (Weninger et al. 2014.9, Fig. 4), filling in the geographical gaps. IZVLE∞EK – Premise o neolitizaciji v medre≠ju Save, Drave in Donave se od ≠asa S. Dimitrijevi≤a niso veliko spremenile. Nova arheolo∏ka izkopavanja in radiokarbonski datumi zgodnjega neolitika so, kljub mnogim pomanjkljivostim, prinesli nove vpoglede v proces neolitizacije na tem obmo≠ju. Za os- novo pri interpretaciji smo uporabili nedavno objavljena dela B. Weningerja in L. Clarea (Clare, We- ninger 2010; Weninger et al. 2009; Weninger et al. 2014), dosegljive radiokarbonske datume in arheo- lo∏ke podatke pa smo uporabili za izdelavo ≠asovnega okvirja, ki je primerljiv s ∏ir∏im obmo≠jem ju- govzhodne Evrope in s klimatskimi pogoji za posamezna obdobja.

In Croatian watercourses, three members of the genus Barbus are found, B. balcanicus, B. barbus and B. plebejus, each occupying a specific ecological niche. This study examined cytochrome b (cyt b), a common genetic marker used to describe the structure and origin of fish populations to perform a phylogenetic reconstruction of the Danube barbel. Two methods of phylogenetic inference were used: maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML), which yielded well supported trees of similar topology. The Median joining network (MJ) was generated and corroborated to show the divergence of three lineages of Barbus balcanicus on the Balkan Peninsula: Croatian, Serbian and Macedonian lineages that separated at the beginning of the Pleistocene.
