On 30 September and 1 October 2021, the 4TU Centre for Resilience Engineering and the Strategic Research Programme DeSIRE (Designing Systems for Informed Resilience Engineering) organized the yearly 4TU DeSIRE-conference on Resilience Engineering. With almost 60 participants we shared views, theories and ideas about resilience. From the Theory of Change, transdisciplinarity to the RElastiCity Game and four interesting regional cases.

We are very pleased to announce that the CASTOR project received a NWA-ORC grant of 1.9 million euro. This means green light for this project as well. CASTOR is all about the sandy-soil landscapes of the east and south Netherlands. These have a wide range of agricultural, recreational and natural functions and are at risk with climate change. Using a living lab approach, the CASTOR project identifies climate-robust landscapes for the future, and together with government and societal partners they design pathways towards these.
