Participants included representatives from the International Commission for the Protection of the Danube River (ICPDR), Danube Strategy Point, and the Global Water Partnership - Central and Eastern Europe.

This co-production-focused Resilience Lab provided a platform to discuss the future of multi-hazard risk management in the Danube Region and to develop actionable pathways for two key sectors: agriculture and river navigation. Using the multi-risk dynamic adaptive policy pathways approach developed within MYRIAD-EU, stakeholders explored potential adaptation options that could work across different spatial and governance scales while delivering cross-hazard and cross-sectoral benefits.

A key focus was on bridging sector-specific objectives with broader environmental goals to create solutions that support both. For example, nature-based solutions were highlighted as a way to align risk management with sustainable planning agendas.

By actively involving stakeholders in the co-creation of these pathways, the Resilience Lab fostered ownership of the results, ensuring a lasting impact beyond MYRIAD-EU.
