Climate change, sea-level rise, urbanization and competing water uses across sectors and regions, challenge rivers and delta systems in new ways. This affects the millions of people living in delta areas. This webinar takes stock of research and practices on rivers and deltas, conducted as part of DUPC2-supported projects. Join our webinar to learn, reflect and discuss: which evidence and good practices can we leverage for building resilient river deltas? Water resources, fertile soil, life-sustaining ecosystems, energy through hydropower: rivers and deltas provide some of the most essential resources for local populations and socio-economic development.
This webinar is organized by the IHE Delft Water and Development Partnership Programme (DUPC), in collaboration with TheWaterChannel. Further information available at https://www.un-ihe.org/what-we-do/water-and-development-partnership-programme and https://thewaterchannel.tv/
