Elbe flood partnership: Municipalities and Cities join forces

In May 2009, 13 cities and municipalities established a partnership against floods; the members jointly develop and adopt protective measures against floods. An important goal is to share experiences in the partnership, which was done too little before. Now, two years after the founding of the partnership, the experience gained jointly will be shared with a wider audience and more members for the partnership are searched: For this, a workshop was helt on the 25th-26th August 2011 in Magdeburg.
