SWIM project
Protecting Fish Migration and Habitats in the Danube-Black Sea Region
The SWIM project, Sustainable Water and Integrated Management of Fish Migration and their Habitats in the Danube River Basin and NW Black Sea, is a bold initiative aligned with the EU Mission Restore Our Ocean and Waters. Our goal is to protect and restore the habitats of migratory fish species in the Danube River Basin and the Northwestern Black Sea region.
