Networking & Clustering

Connecting with other projects and regions in a networking context involves fostering collaboration, sharing resources, and ensuring seamless communication. Deltares is the leading partner of this process with the consortium partners participation will develop the collaboration with sister projects through different platforms and clusters.

The NBRACER aims to enhance networking across projects and regions with the following actions:

  • Stakeholder Analysis: Identifying key stakeholders in across relevant projects and regions, understand their roles, influence, and networking preferences.

  • Project Updates: Scheduling regular virtual meetings with project coordinators for updates. This will encourage open discussions and sharing of challenges, successes and foster collaboration.

  • Knowledge Sharing Sessions: Hosting and participating in sessions where partners can share insights and best practices. Inviting facilitators from sister projects and across regions to promote inclusivity.

  • Workshops: Organizing workshops or conferences to facilitate networking opportunities and cross-project collaboration

  • Joint Initiatives: Encouraging projects to collaborate on joint initiatives to promote knowledge exchange and skill-sharing, together with NBRACER partners

  • Task forces participation for specific research challenges and knowledge exchange.

NBS4EU is a collaborative cluster established in spring 2024 to foster cooperation and knowledge exchange among projects funded under the Horizon Europe programme in the field of climate resilience and Nature-based solutions. Bringing together seven projects, with a total funding of nearly 140 million euros, NBS4EU supports coordination among approximately 70 regions and municipalities, contributing to the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change. By facilitating synergies, shared activities, and strategic alignment, NBS4EU enhances the collective impact and outreach of these initiatives, accelerating the transition toward climate resilience across Europe.
