Imagine we are 10 years further. The urgent housing delivery has been met. But do we then live in pleasant, green and water-rich living environments? Do we build for today’s shortfall, or do we build for areas that will still be functioning over 100 years from now? What do we then need to take into account in our area development projects in the coming years?’ Co Verdaas, Deltacommissioner and professor of Area Development, takes us along in an enthusiastic way through the major (climate) developments and solution directions for area development. Presentation by Co Verdaas, Deltacommissioner and professor of Area Development (TU Delft).
