Institutional Partners are the basis of GWP's multi-stakeholder partnership. A strong, diverse partnership can bring about the changes needed to achieve a water secure world.

Links strengthened with the Sava Commission

GWP Central and Eastern Europe and GWP Slovenia are now able to support water management processes and be involved in activities related to public participation and education through GWP's observer status at the International Sava River Basin Commission.

The Sava Commission was established to implement the 2005 Framework Agreement on the Sava River Basin. Its mission is to establish sustainable water management, comprising integrated management of surface and groundwater resources. The 945 km long Sava River rises in Slovenia, flows through Croatia, along the northern border of Bosnia and Herzegovina and finally through Serbia where it joins the Danube in Belgrade.

GWP Central and Eastern Europe can now participate in all open sessions of the Sava Commission and in the meetings of the permanent expert groups. Of the GWP Central and Eastern Europe member countries, Slovenia is also a member country of the Sava Commission.
