On July 17 – July 19, 2015 Board meeting Danube – Networkers for Europe (DANET) e.V. was held in Zagreb, at the Public Open University Zagreb (POUZ). In those three days, members from Germany, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovenia and Croatia intensively discussed current work and future activities of the DANET organization. Most discussed question was how to make the relationship between all those involved in projects as part of a wider Danube network and those who are members of the organization DANET, i.e. what is the special role of the DANET organization in expanding various forms of cooperation and collaboration networks in the Danube region. Special attention was paid to all future activities, especially the 2nd Participation Day for civil society actors (Ulm, October 2015) and the new planned new project “Tastes of Danube”.
