Multiple goals, several win-win’s, many stakeholders˗ Optimizing Safety: waterway managers, local residents, …˗ Developing natural quality: environmental organisations, …˗ Economy: port companies, farmers, boatmen…˗ Recreation : cyclists, hikers, canoeists, pleasure craft operators
˗ Overal: resident, local municipalities (politicians)
Difficult choices need to be made Room for the river
= less space for humansneed to expropriate or purchase soils and develop compensation measures

Policy integration and preparationmore sustainable approach
Deeper insight in the estuary’s many functions
Integral water management ˗ Respect the various functions of the water system;˗ Avoid negative consequences for the environment;˗ Seek added value and synergies
ROOM FOR THE RIVER APPROACH˗ Moving dykes landward (de-poldering)˗ More complex ‘controlled reduces tides’ (GGG)˗ New river areas (new alignment of the embankment)
ONTMOET DE SCHELDEONTMOET DE SCHELDE34
PAST˗ Decisions based on high water levels;˗ Basic rule: water can be suppressed;
– taller, stronger dykes – flood control areas
2005˗ Decisions based on potential damage
(costs –benefits);˗ ‘Floods are also part of the Scheldt’;˗ Safety vision: Better protection by giving
the river more room to breatheO PTIM U M
