Throughout this week, we have shown two rather different context, as we focussed on urban water management in Amsterdam and Chinese cities. Although the type of water management challenges in both context has similarities, the severity of the problems, the solutions chosen and the role of the involved stakeholders proved context-dependent. So, let’s reflect upon what we have seen with prof. Huub Rijnaarts.

Afterwards, let’s ask some young researchers how urban water management is experienced all over the world, whether citizens have a role in urban water management and what role that is.
