About Delta Forum

BDP 2100 intends to address uncertainty about the future, where a large number of stakeholders at all levels need to be involved. Capacities need to be enhanced and important aspects of the plan incorporated in the day to day working methods of various organizations at local to national level.

In order to stimulate the BDP 2100 implementation, a sharing and exchanging knowledge portal broad perspective is needed for a policy-science-practice implication dialogue in order to reach the political discussion.
