Enabling collaborative efforts for systemic change in Estonian River Basin Management

Uiboupin, Rivo

Abstract

LIFE SIP for WATER paves the way for the full implementation of the Western-Estonian River Basin Management Plan (WE RBMP) for 2022-2027, upscaling the implementation of water framework directive in the largest of three river basins of Estonia. The overall objective of the WE RBMP is to protect and improve the ecological status of surface waters and groundwaters, improve sustainable water use and support mitigation of drought and flood hazards. Aligning with the RBMP objectives, the current project proposes solutions to reinvent both the river basin governance system as well as boost uptake of novel methods and decision support solutions for improved river basin management. Such novel methods, holistic decision support systems and collaborative management efforts are mostly required to optimize the routine river basin management related challenges all over Estonia.
