Both NL and UK have peatlands that for centuries have been drained by using windmills. It’s always really inspiring to talk with local water managers and hear their challenges and solutions for future climate adaptation! @ADA_updates @waterschappen @EUWMA_network @BroadsNP

@EUWMA_network @asadefrance @ADA_updates bien de voir mention de collaboration transfrontalier avec des Wateringes de Belgique (VVPW). Nous venons de passer 2 jours en reunion annuelle constructive a Oostende/Nieuwport au sujet de gestion des masses d’eau.
Un projet attendu de coopération internationale en matière de gestion des masses d’eau, qui se concretise

Many thanks to our Belgian @EUWMA_network colleagues #VVPW, @Dieterstaat for organising an excellent AGM in Oostende. The #waterings are so similar to #idbs carrying out a vital role for water level and flood risk management. @Smallenbroek @robertcaudwell @ADA_updates

Over the last days we had a successful annual meeting with the @EUWMA_network. This time we met at the Belgian coast to discuss climate adaptation measures in rural areas. We need more water retention and to stop salt water intrusion!

Er vallen regenbuien in Nederland. Als oplossing voor de droogte vooralsnog een druppel op een gloeiende plaat. De waterschappen hebben hun handen vol aan het opvangen van hoosbuien en de droogteproblemen zijn er helaas nog niet mee opgelost. unievanwaterschappen.nl/hevi…

Good to see our @EUWMA_network friends @DutchWaterAuth @waterschappen & @FenacoreOficial highlighted 👇 #InternalDrainageBoards are their equivalent bodies in England & similarly engage farmers within their local governance of water levels in lowland areas ada.org.uk/member_type/idbs/

If we want to feed people, we need to grow food. To grow food we need water. Supporting Fenacore, it’s essential that we balance environmental, social & economic needs. @ADA_updates @EUWMA_network @pow_rebecca @ianhodgeEA @EmmaHowardBoyd @ProagriLtd @CLAtweets @Minette_Batters

Thanks to @adaupdates for publishing an excellent commemorative booklet about 25 years of the @EUWMA_network. It provides a good idea of the longstanding EU cooperation of local and regional water managers. @waterschappen issuu.com/ada.org.uk/docs/eu…
