Presenting Nov 14 to the WUR Energy Alliance
I am in the Netherlands this week and next, visiting with Dirk Oudes and Sven Stremke in the Landscape Architecture and Spatial Planning group at Wageningen University and Research (WUR). Funded by WIMEK (the faculty equivalent), I’m here to collaborate, give some academic presentations, and work with students in the Climate Responsive Planning and Design course. It has been a great trip already, just a few days in, and I am enjoying seeing the inner workings of a different academic system. The collegial vibe is energizing. I am also taking opportunities to get into the adjacent landscape, including dykes (dijks) and dykelands (polders), as shown below. The weather has been wet, so I haven’t been able to get closer to the river yet, but I hope it will dry up next week.
