Decline in spatial quality

Decline in spatial quality due to a high number of civil constructions.

The perception and awareness of the function of the Maas dyke and the surrounding nature reserve is too low.


Thinking Dykes

Thinking Dykes (Dijkdenken) was a competition amongst students and young professionals to come up with a new solution or innovation to use the Maas dyke more efficient and sustainable. Crowdsourcing was used to jointly find new, innovative and sustainable concepts.
