Though she missed her children when they were left behind in Georgia, she is now satisfied with her decision to migrate. Alfonso left Albania because he couldn't find work, and chose Greece because it was close and he had friends there. Elina is from Russia but is ethnically Greek; her family migrated to Greece for better jobs and to return to their homeland. Comia migrated from the Philippines to Greece to find work and support his family. Overall, the interviews illustrate the common challenges of migration as well as the workers' feelings of both connection to their home

This document discusses the development of a Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA). It outlines the steps to develop the TDA, including defining system boundaries, collecting and analyzing data, identifying and prioritizing transboundary problems, determining the impacts of priority problems, analyzing causes of problems, and developing thematic reports. It also discusses that the TDA provides factual basis for the strategic planning component and should involve engagement with stakeholders throughout the process. Finally, it notes that the TDA development team should be representative of participating countries and stakeholders.
TDA/SAP Methodology Training Course Module 2 Section 10Iwl Pcu
This document provides information about governance analysis as part of the TDA/SAP process. It defines governance as the process of decision-making and implementation. Governance analysis examines the key aspects of political, economic, and civil society processes. It focuses on the dynamics of these relationships. There is no agreed approach, and the type of analysis will depend on the cultural, political, and social structures of the countries involved. The governance analysis should consider the decision-making, institutional, policy, and civil society arrangements that influence economic and political decisions affecting the issues being analyzed. The document provides advice to go beyond formal structures and understand informal dynamics and relationships.

В 1995 году благодаря финансовой поддержке Всемирного Банка было подготовлено изучение
выполнимости Программы охраны Охридского озера
Конференция жертвователей на тему охраны Охридского озера имеет место в Охрид; предоставлено
свыше 45 млн DEM на проекты снабжения питьевой водой и отвода сточных вод в Албании и
Македонии
В Албании и Македонии создано Комитеты по Управлению Водосборными Бассейнами с целью разработки плана действий
относительно всех водосборных бассейнов.
С помощью программы предоставляемых конкурентно грантов был выбран ряд демонстрационных проектов.
Албания и Македония подписывают Меморандум Соглашения в области проекта
охраны Охридского озера (ПООО) и создают Совет Управления Охридским озером
В 1998 Албания и Македония подписывают договор на грант для ПООО; проект был
оцифиально приведен в действие в декабре 1998 в Албании, а в Македонии в марте 1999
В 2000: немецкий консультант MVV подготавливает изучение выполнимости Проекта

Эвтрофизация является одной из самых больших угроз Охридского озера. Из числа компонентов
удобрений фосфор является фактором, ограничивающим рост альгов, и сразу же и эвтрофизации.
Сброс растворенного фосфора в 1995 расчитано на 150 тонн в год. Необходимо его снизить до 50 тонн в
год с целью удержать концентрацию фосфора ниже уровня 7 мг м-3.
