The challenges of flooding

In a virtual laboratory, we want to discuss the challenges of flooding with our partners from different continents. Experiences and best practices will be exchanged and the need for action will be identified.

What can we learn from each other? How can we learn from the experiences of our global neighbors and distant partners in the fight against climate change? Because we are all working TOGETHER against climate change and for a better world.
