Singapore-Netherlands Water Challenge – 2nd Edition: Adaptive Solutions for Climate Change
Theme of the second edition of the Singapore-Netherlands Water Challenge was Adaptive Solutions for Climate Change.
Singapore and the Netherlands share huge challenges in dealing with the combined effects of climate change and urbanisation. Both countries are relatively small and very densely populated; they have extensive coastlines and inland waterways, unique aquatic ecosystems and only few natural sources of fresh water.
It is therefore no surprise that Climate Change Adapation is high on the agenda of both Singapore and the Netherlands and one of key research areas of the newly established NUSDeltares water alliance – a partnership between the National University of Singapore and Deltares from the Netherlands.
