A number of lessons learned from the floods after hurricane Katrina as well as other insights from research and practice in the United States were deemed applicable to flood risks in the Netherlands. At the request of the Dutch government, a collaborative network of Dutch and American universities and institutes was formed, the 'Netherlands US Water Crisis Research Network' (NUWCReN). The network is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management and is operational from 2009 until April 2012. NUWCReN has as its vision to:
- establish a network of individuals and institutions to generate and share knowledge in support of Dutch crisis and disaster management issues;
- identify areas for additional research;
- initiate innovative collaborative research with a focus on operational implementation together with stakeholders.
NUWCReN outcomes are expected to help the Dutch government prepare for, respond to and recover from water-related crisis situations. The network is focused on efforts to reduce damage, casualties and social disruption.
