As part of the Netherlands sea level rise strategy development we organised a workshop series to explore long term perspectives for sea level rise. One of the regions we visited is the Wadden Sea. Together with local experts we explored the relation between land use and directions for sea level rise (protection, coastal advance, living with water). The island-identity and the ecological qualities of this UNESCO-area make this a unique location.

The workshop series is part of the national knowledge programme on sea level rise (Kennisprogramma Zeespiegelstijging spoor IV). The Delta program released a video that stresses the urgency to investigate and understand the system and the impact of future sea level rise. You can find the video here
