Students participate in workshop European Year of Cultural Heritage 2018!

Students of the elective Heritage Landcapes are participating in workshop Gemaakt Landschap/ Created Landscape. This workshop is organised by the Forestry Commission, European Year of Cultural Heritage and the State Heritage Service and will be held in Nijmegen on 25 and 26 April 2018. During these two day workshop the case study of Rijnstrangen will be studied and plans will be presented during the expert meeting on Thursday.

The aim of the expert meeting is to put together and agenda of future challenges and possible solutions from a European perspective. This month the theme is on .

The Rijnstrangen (silted side-channels of the river Rhine) are situated in the Gelderse Poort, where the river Rhine forks into the river Waal and the Pannerdens Kanaal (canal of Pannerden). For a long time, these side-channels were a highly dynamic part of the river. They were instrumental to the distribution of water to the different branches of the Rhine. The Rijnstrangen have been disconnected from the river since the 1960’s. The side-channels area may still breathe river, but it has lost its soul with the elimination of the river dynamics. The challenge is to explore the benefits of flood retention for the area in terms of flood protection, experience, potential profits and reinforcement of low-dynamic nature. And consequently what type of landscape this will result into with respect to and possibly with the help of the existing cultural history.
