Abstract:
The research focusses on the legal dimensions of flood resilient landscapes in the Southwestern Delta. These landscapes aim to provide an integral and natural solution to flood risk management and climate adaptation along the coastline of Zeeland. To help develop flood resilient landscapes the legal requirements and obstacles will be defined. Legal solutions will be developed where necessary and possible. The research falls within the scope of the 'Flexible Deltas'-project of the Delta Climate Center.
