Climate Campus: climate-proof IJssel-Vecht delta
No climate adaptation without collaboration. This project aims to develop, field-test, and implement an innovative collaboration model encompassing government bodies, education establishments, research institutes, entrepreneurs, NGOs, and citizen initiatives. The project utilises the Climate Campus network.
Project objective
The collaboration model is intended to foster:
- A climate-proof delta (expediting the implementation of measures);
- An economically strong delta (new products and services, a healthy labour market);
- An assertive delta (water awareness, culture).
Implementation
Multiple activities are being undertaken to achieve the goals, such as:
- Organising network meetings and knowledge sessions;
- Developing and disseminating best practices;
- Boosting and facilitating neighbourhood initiatives and “citizen science”: involving residents and users;
- Developing a “show garden” in which entrepreneurs present (new) products and services to residents and vice versa;
- Setting up a climate adaptation monitoring strategy;
- Setting up a marketing strategy for the Zwolle region as the delta of the future.
