Water Resources Protection and Water Management Framework in Western Balkan Countries in Drina River Basin
Journal Title: Acadlore Transactions on Geosciences - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper aimed to point out not only the main sources of water pollution in the Drina River basin, but also the inevitability and importance of an integrative transboundary solution to water management issues, thus maintaining good quality surface and underground water in the context of overall environmental protection and health. This paper did qualitative research of existing water protection situation and made a top-bottom analysis, ranging from European to national, regional, and local levels, using geospatial and geosystemic differentiation analysis methods of spatial-temporal contents. It was concluded that bilateral cooperation agreements between countries in the basin should be reached to eliminate the causes of water pollution and possibly restore water quality.
