Keynote by Water Strategist Eva IJzermans
No future without leadership: who will lead the water transition?
Our water system is visibly in transition: periods of scarcity alternate with excess, and water quality is under pressure. The key question is: who will take the lead in tackling these complex challenges and building a future-proof water system — with Zeeland leading the way?
Water stewardship offers an innovative and promising approach. In her keynote, water strategist Eva IJzermans demonstrates how this approach can help break through the current impasse — not by centralizing control, but by enabling collective leadership.
During Get Unlocked, she explores:
-
How water stewardship fosters shared ownership without any one party claiming control
-
How it places the water system at the center and drives smart, integrated collaboration across sectors and interests
-
How transparency and joint monitoring strengthen trust and create a foundation for collective learning
-
And how inspiring future visions can unite and mobilize people
Eva’s story makes one thing clear: water is not just a technical or administrative issue, but a broad societal challenge. One that calls for vision, collaboration, and the courage to do things differently. And with it, the opportunity to position Zeeland as an international example of resilient and adaptive water management.
