From Waterfront Toronto:
"On May 28-29, 2015, the Dutch Consulate in Toronto and Waterfront Toronto hosted the Canadian – Netherlands Resilient Cities Summit: Planning and Design in a Changing Climate.
The Summit was a unique opportunity for Canadian and Dutch experts to discuss real issues and challenges for mitigation and adapting to a changing climate, and to work on joint solutions. Key themes of the Summit included fostering safe and clean environments, urban flood protection, the management and re-use of soil and sediment, how to achieve more community resilience, and the importance of a regional resilience strategy. Increasingly, we realize the need to find integrated solutions to complex infrastructure systems and to design for smart and resilient cities."
