This testimonial video provides insights into the challenges and the importance of cooperation across borders in addressing natural disasters, such as floods, by highlighting a project of great significance in the Greek - Bulgarian cross-border area. Border regions between Greece and Bulgaria are historically vulnerable to floods due to the two transboundary river basins of Struma/Strymon and Evros/Maritsa. The video discusses the importance of bilateral cooperation in increasing the resilience of border regions. It marks out "Flood Protection", one of the largest Interreg V-A Greece Bulgaria 2014-2020 strategic projects aiming to improve the resilience of the cross-border area in times of crisis. The project brought together authorities from both sides of the border to provide tangible outputs such as large-scale infrastructure upgrades and increased disaster-handling capacity. The person featured in the video is the Project Manager, Mr Konstantinos Michailidis.
