Why Delta Zones?
River deltas around the world are encountering shared problems in the face of climate change, population growth, and increasing economic activities. There are countless information sources, organizations and activities addressing these shared problems, but they are not able to take full advantage of one another because information for most of them is not easy to find or to use.
The Delta Zones site provides a platform for sharing and linking to information to support the symbiosis of the many activities ongoing in delta regions, reducing unnecessary overlap in efforts.
What is Delta Zones?
Delta Zones is a website where users can upload information on river deltas, organizations, experts, projects, events, and themes of relevance for river delta regions. Information is uploaded and maintained by site users, both through creating profiles of organizations, experts, projects, and events, and by contributing to wikis for deltas and themes. The whole history of additions and improvements to information on the site can be traced, so no information gets definitively lost.
Who is Delta Zones for?
Policy makers, practitioners, scientists, students, and public stakeholders - everyone who is interested in how river delta regions worldwide are responding to their distinctive challenges.
