The RECONECT project team led by Zoran Vojinovic, IHE Delft Associate Professor of Urban Water Systems is organising the upcoming International Conference on Nature-Based Solutions for Water Security and Climate Adaptation. This conference aims to bring together academic communities and practitioners to exchange information, experiences and research results on a variety of aspects concerning Nature-Based Solutions for Water Security and Climate Adaptation.
There is growing evidence that traditional interventions for the reduction of hydro-meteorological risks (e.g., floods, droughts, heatwaves, storms, coastal storm surges, tropical cyclones, landslides, wildfires) have focused on grey infrastructure measures which are often limited in their approach and effects. A new response towards disaster risk reduction, water security, and resilience to climate change, which has a potential to be more effective and sustainable than traditional measures, is currently passing under the name of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS).
IHE Delft will be represented by a team led by Zoran Vojinovic, would you like to take part? Submit your abstract below!
