But the planned expansion of the Oder into a waterway is just as dangerous for the German-Polish border river. This is one of the issues against which the Save the rivers Coalition (KRR) from Poland is fighting and for what it received the EuroNatur Award 2023. The award is not only intended to acknowledge the individual activities of the alliance. It is meant especially to highlight the willingness to work together and join forces to increase the impact for nature conservation, said EuroNatur President Thomas Potthast in his laudation.
