Water sensitive area development in the Waterpoort region

The HZ Delta Academy participates together with 3 provinces, 9 municipalities, two other Universities of Applied Sciences and several other organizations in Waterpoort. Waterpoort is an area development process initiated by the province of Brabant to create new opportunities in the mainly rural area around the Volkerak-Zoom lake. In this area redevelopment process, involved governments, businesses, ngo’s and citizens try to find new roles in water related area development. The involved organizations try to stimulate and facilitate citizens and local businesses to innovate, to restore connectivity with the water and to co-create an identity and future of the area. In this project you will build on previous research. With input from participating students we created an overview of the different user groups in Waterpoort and their relation with the water system, as well as an overview of the main historical drivers for transitions in the area. New insights about water sensitive area development are brought together in an overall document, called the ‘Atlas of the Waterpoort’.

Follow-up assignments are pending. Contact: Jean-Marie Buijs (jm.buijs@hz.nl)
