Future-proof water management

At Wageningen University & Research, we explore future-proof water management to create anti-fragile water systems that support sustainable, symbiotic relationships between humans and water. Our work focuses on ensuring equitable water availability, balancing competing needs within catchments and among users, and developing adaptive systems that learn and improve over time.

By integrating climate adaptation, biodiversity conservation, and innovative governance, we provide tools and strategies for policymakers, water managers, and industry partners to design water systems capable of withstanding uncertainty and change. This approach emphasizes systemic solutions that go beyond traditional water management, enabling resilient and sustainable management of water resources in a complex and dynamic world.
