We are pleased to share the second STARS4Water Newsletter, designed to keep you updated on our project’s progress, outcomes, and…
The STARS4Water project includes two distinctive elements: first, the need for an international stakeholder community to address the stakeholders’ needs and requirements. Second, the development and application of innovative data and model concepts. We acknowledge that these elements are of a different nature, being a stakeholder-driven approach and a rather science-data-driven in the application of novel data and models, respectively. It is the consortium’s firm conviction that for substantial progress in climate change adaptation, both these approaches are required, and that meaningful innovations happen where both meet.
Within STARS4Water we will develop an Online Impact Reporter. This application will support the reporting of biophysical and socio-economic impacts, changes in vulnerability and risk, and ex-post evaluations of applied adaptation measures by different categories of stakeholders related to water management and climate change. This information is crucial and currently lacking within the EU, thus the transparent exchange of this knowledge will support river basin managers in impact assessment, policy making and future planning of adaptation measures.
Join our Stakeholder Forum to exchange views with other stakeholders in the 7 river basin hubs and beyond on challenges related to the implementation of River Basin Management Plans under climate change. Learn more about the STARS4Water next generation tools and data services for better supporting decision making and planning on actions for adaptive, resilient and sustainable management of freshwater resources at the basin scale. Share your experiences and support the STARS4Water co-development process.

Jan Kruijshoop Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management - RijkswaterstaatClimate change affects us all and especially low water circumstances are of growing impact in the Dutch Delta, of 4 river systems in Western Europe. The effects of climate change are more or less the same, the circumstances are different for each river basin. Stars4Water will help us to strengthen our knowledge base and the network of water managers who are dealing with the same challenges.
