Arcadis to analyse all coastal development projects in Europe

Dutch engineering consultancy Arcadis has been assigned the task to map and analyse all coastal development projects in Europe on behalf of the European Commission (Environmental Division). This should lead to hundreds of European examples of integrated coastal zone management being made available on the internet. Not only completed coastal projects are included, but also policy studies, along with those that have been carried out in the area of climate adaptation.

The task should result in recommendations on the preferred direction that is needed from the Commission towards the member states of the Union. In essence, Arcadis is helping the Commission formulate the policy on how to deal with integrated coastal zone management in Europe. The formal project title is: 'Exchange of Experience and Comparative Analysis for Integrated Coastal Zone Management'. The duration of the project is three years and it involves an amount of € 1 million.
