DAPhNE aims at facilitating a balanced development of Danube Ports as eco-friendly, well accessible multimodal hubs for the transport system of the region in order to turn them into economic centres functioning as catalysts for economic growth and creation of high value jobs.
Entities involved in the project are: ministries, port administrations, port users, consultancy firms, logistics companies, NGOs and universities.
The activities aim to improve port legislation and funding, port administration processes as well as port infrastructure development.
RGO is the Activity leader related to an innovative port IT community system (electronic platform) that connects multiple systems operated by a variety of organisations within the port area will be tested in real-life in several Danube ports.
The project started in January 2017 and will be completed by July 2019. Project co-funded by European Union funds (ERDF, IPA), within the scope of the Interreg Danube programme.
FRED - Fire Free MED
The Fire Free MED – FRED is a project developed and submitted with the Faculty of Maritime Studies in Rijeka and other eight partners from the Mediterranean, supported by 10 associated partners.
The FRED project overall objective is to implement advanced ICT/UAS (drone) tools for climate change adaptation, disaster risk prevention and mitigation in the wildfire segment at 6 public authorities in 6 MED countries (HR, SI, IT, BA, ME, EL, PT). By doing so, the project technical solutions will prevent and mitigate wildfires, strengthen resilience of the EU wildfire hotspot - MED and result in reducing risks to human lives, ecosystem degradation, habitat/biodiversity loss.
RGO is happy to work with the scientific partners and public authorities on the development of tools that are to support relevant wildfire/search and rescue authorities in prevention and mitigation; and subsequently have these tools tested in six separate pilot actions in: Kras karst area in Slovenia, Rocca di Cerere UNESCO Geopark in Italy, Una National park in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Ulcinj municipality in Montenegro, Mali Lošinj Island in Croatia and Baixo Alentejo region in Portugal.
With total budget of 2.380.000,00 EUR, project activities are to be implemented by the end of September 2026. The subsidy was awarded within the scope of the Interreg Europe MED programme.
