Climate and Financial Risks in the Dutch Delta

The Dutch Delta is facing new and growing risks due to climate change. Seas are rising and weather is becoming more extreme, for example. This effects people, nature, and the economy. These changes also have impacts on our financial system and will require new approaches to financing life in our low-lying delta.

Resilient Delta is working with scientists, policymakers, and practitioners to ask:
– What long-term investments and financing strategies do we need to keep our delta livable and prosperous?
– What is a fair distribution of roles and responsibilities for tackling risks and finding solutions?
– How can public and private resources and interventions be aligned to project people, nature, and the economy?

Resilient Delta brings scientists, practitioners, policymakers, and citizens together to work on these crucial topics. On this website, you’ll find updates on Resilient Delta-sponsored events, projects, and collaborators working to address climate and financial risks in our delta. By working together, we can build solutions for our delta.
