Financial Dimension of Resource Mobilization for Environmental Projects in Eastern Europe

This publication addresses the issue of transboundary water management, with special emphasis on environmental protection of groundwater resources. It includes above all presentations of the outcomes of some of initiatives and projects being lately implemented in the selected countries of Eastern Europe region, as well as introduction to the activities of the relevant institutions. As the supplementary issue, the publication deals with the future perspectives of the cooperation between different stockholders in the transboundary projects, which need to be considered in connection with the issue of resource mobilization. Taking advantage from the experience gained from the work with the international community in Vienna, especially in the framework of the cooperation with the United Nation Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), I was asked to make the contribution to the text, concerning the financial dimension of resource mobilization for environmental projects in Eastern Europe.
