The project kicked off in the most fitting place: on a cruise on the Danube, starting in Galati. SUNDANSE is an ambitious, 48 months long initiative funded under the Horizon Europe Programme and a vital component of the EU Mission: “Restore our Ocean and Waters”. The project aims to develop innovative and sustainable sediment solutions for the Danube River - Black Sea system, addressing critical environmental challenges related to sedimentation and contributing to the health and resilience of our waterways.
The SUNDANSE Consortium is coordinated by "Dunărea de Jos" University of Galați based in Romania. It brings together 20 innovation stakeholders and educational/research entities from 10 different European countries - Romania, France, Belgium, Israel, Serbia, Estonia, Ukraine, Austria, and Ireland. The initiative held its kick-off meeting on the 1-2 of July 2024 in Galați where the project’s roadmap was presented. We are proud to be part of this ambitious four-year project, bringing in the specific perspective of the Inland Waterway Transport industry, the key user of the Danube.
Together, we aim to create sustainable solutions for sediment management that will benefit the environment and the industries reliant on this vital waterway.
