Water Experience

I coordinate an international water programme focussing on co-creation and innovation. We focus on NBS and the WBF nexus. We share our knowledge via life and online events as well as via our website https://www.partnersforwater.nl and a podcast Waterproof We also supply subsidies for innovative and inclusive approaches focussing on too much, too little, or too dirty water. I worked before as professor in higher education on delta and water management.
