	Dojran Lake - first meeting of the ad hoc working group, 17 April 2002
		Dojran is shared between Greece and FYR Macedonia, and in the past few years it has suffered a significant fall in the water level, coupled with increased pollution concentration due to the reduced water volume and increased agricultural run off.
		Under the initiative of MedWet, supported by the Greek Biotope/Wetland Centre (EKBY) and Skopje office of the Germany's aid agency, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit (GTZ), a first meeting was held on 11 and 12 December 2001, hosted by EKBY in Thessaloniki and chaired by MedWet.
		Greece informed the meeting about the planned agricultural restructuring in the area, to be funded by the EU Structural Funds in order to replace the current production (mainly maize) with other less water-demanding crops and install water-saving irrigation methods.

		Pertsinidis, Mayor of the Municipality of Dojran from the Greek part, as well as C. Ristevski on behalf of the FYROM Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy, welcomed the participants and expressed their hope for a practical result from the meeting, highlighting the dramatic state of Lake Dojran.
		The chairman summarised the conclusions of that discussion as follows: There is insufficient scientific baseline data for the condition of Lake Dojran and the clear linkages between the contribution of human and natural factors on the current state of the lake.
		Moreover, he expressed his concern that, all the water carried into Lake Dojran through a very expensive project in the FYROM territory, might be drawn in the Greek part of the catchment area for crop irrigation, rendering the whole idea completely meaningless.
