Despite recurring severe drought events, drought has long been addressed&nbsp;mainly through&nbsp;reactive crisis management, with limited coordination and preparedness. The&nbsp;DriDanube&nbsp;project responded to this challenge by promoting a shift towards proactive drought risk management. The project strengthened cooperation among countries and institutions in the Danube region and supported the development of tools and approaches for improved drought monitoring, early warning, risk assessment, and decision-making.\u202f\u202f\u202f&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<strong>Project\u202fobjectives:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Increase the capacity of the Danube region to manage drought-related risks&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Support the transition from reactive to proactive drought management&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improve drought monitoring, early warning, and impact assessment&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strengthen cooperation among operational services, authorities, and stakeholders&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhance preparedness and response throughout the drought management cycle&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Role of GWP CEE in the project:<\/strong>&nbsp;GWP CEE contributed to the project by supporting stakeholder engagement, communication, and knowledge exchange across the Danube region. GWP CEE helped promote integrated drought management principles,&nbsp;facilitated&nbsp;cooperation among national and regional actors, and supported dissemination of project results to policymakers, professionals, and end users to strengthen preparedness and drought risk awareness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Contact of the responsible GWP CEE project
