On May 1st, our Ambassador Remco van Wijngaarden welcomed the 10-day summer course "Amphibious Transformation by Design'' as part of our Orange Green Days initiative. This course brings together students from Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT) in Thailand and Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) in Indonesia to explore the challenges of the water issue in regional, metropolitan and urban environments in relation to climate change.

The Netherlands is proud to collaborate with various countries, sharing knowledge and expertise in water management. Many thanks to all partners, including Dutch expertise from TUDelft, IHE Delft Institute for Water Education, and Waterstudio for their invaluable support in making this summer course possible.
