Maksin Marija (University Singidunum, Faculty of tourism and hospitality management, Belgrade)
Corridor VII, the Danube development belt and the Danube River Basin
represent a basis for the development of Serbia’s spatial, economic, social
and cultural relations with the Danube countries and the implementation of
the European strategic documents concerning the management of the sustainable
spatial development of the Danube Region. Therefore, this paper analyzes the
implementation approaches, priority areas, actions and instruments determined
by the relevant European and international strategic documents for the
Danube, and the umbrella European document for all Danube countries -
European Union Strategy for the Danube Region. The implementation of an
integrated approach, strategic framework, obligations and recommendations
determined by the analyzed European and international strategic documents and
conventions is especially important for improving the management of the
spatial development of the Danube Region and Serbia as a whole. From that
aspect, the paper recommends the necessary activities and facilities for
harmonizing our strategic planning and management system and practice with
the analyzed European documents concerning the Danube and Danube Region.
Keywords: Danube, Danube Region, European and international strategic documents and conventions, strategic approach and obligations, planning and management of sustainable spatial development
