The updated climate scenarios for the Netherlands, which were published this week in the Klimaatsignaal’21 by the KNMI – Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute, emphasize the urgency to address sea level rise . As part of the national ‘Kennisprogramma Zeespiegelstijging’, we explored the spatial consequences of different development directions for the long-term sea level rise. The developed research-by-design maps clearly show the urgency of short term actions in order to ensure a safe and livable future.
What is the potential of nature based solutions to reduce floodrisk in Kigali and how can nbs be implemented in different types of urban areas of the city? These questions were answered in today’s final presentation of our NBS study, where we presented the final results to The World Bank, the City of Kigali and different stakeholders of the Government of Rwanda and the Rwanda Urban Upgrading Project II (RUDP-II).
The final report with the results of the study will be available soon!
In onderstaande NOS-podcast gaat Anne Loes met ‘De Weerman’ Peter Kuipers Munneke en milieuarts Peter van den Hazel in gesprek over hitte in de stad. Wat betekent die hitte voor de leefbaarheid van onze steden en hoe gaan we ons daartegen wapenen?

Podcast van een uitgebreid gesprek over de klimaatbestendige stad waarbij Anne Loes Nillesen met David Dooghe van TNO, Dirk Bakker en Arjan van Eijck van Colliers in gesprek gaat over de klimaatverandering en mogelijkheden voor mitigatie, adaptatie en klimaatbestendig vastgoed.
Erg waardevol om vanuit verschillende sectoren (vastgoed, ontwerp, onderzoek) het gesprek aan te gaan over de kansen en belemmeringen bij het werken aan de klimaatbestendige stad!
De podcastaflevering is hier te beluisteren.
What could a circular and climate-adaptive inland port area look like? Defacto will use its experience in design research to explore potentials for sustainable development of Port of Zwolle | Port of Opportunities together with Stec Groep, New Economy and Panteia. The first stakeholder session already resulted in interesting synergies between energy generation, urban mining and logistics. We are looking forward to further cooperation with our partners and other stakeholders in the area of Kampen, Meppel and Zwolle!
In Nederland is er regelmatig te veel of juist te weinig water; lange periodes van droogte worden afgewisseld met hoosbuien. Wat kunnen we daaraan doen? Hoe kunnen we ons aanpassen aan dit veranderende klimaat? Anne Loes Nillesen ging hierover in gesprek met Bart Krull voor de podcast van het Waterschap Amstel, Gooi en Vecht en vertelt over kansen voor klimaatadaptatie in stedelijke gebieden.

Anne Loes Nillesen will be one of the pannellists of the SEARCH Conversation to discuss about the Sundarbans this Saturday, July 3rd, 6:00 pm IST (2:30 pm CET).
The Sundarbans has been on the receiving end of repeated natural disasters. The region has been devastated after being hit by ‘Amphan’ last year and ‘Yass’ this year. Covid, too, added to the misery of people. The unique tenacity of the place while living on the margin for long is being tested frequently. The discussion will address three points: critical issues, significant measures taken so far, and long-term options.
Wednesday June 2nd Defacto Urbanism will present the first results of the Urban Nature Based Solutions (NBS) study for Kigali, at the Ecoshape Building with nature seminar. This World Bank study (supported by the ACP-EU) focusses on urban NBS that reduce the rainwater runoff while greening the city. Our multidisciplinary team of Defacto Urbanism, Ecorys, HKV, RHDHV, Sher and CGIS developed an integral approach for identifying and selecting suitable NBS.
