Sustainable management of water bodies must combine economic safety and development of local communities from adjacent areas, with the needs of conservation for species and habitats. FishForLife project proposes, with the support of local partners, modern solutions for solving dysfunctions, through an integrated approach of river basin management, based on the objectives of Water Framework Directive and management plan of Natura 2000 Gilort River site. Fish passages to be built in Albeni and Targu Carbunesti will restore the connectivity over a significant distance to Gilort River, so as to contribute to its repopulation with currently declining species.

To better explain these issues, the project implementation team made a video to promote good practices currently used world wide for ecological reconstruction of rivers.
