A Danish philanthropic association supports nature-based coastal defense with millions

27 June 2022

In the future, climate change is expected to have a wide impact on coastal areas due to rising sea levels, storm surges, etc. We are glad to announce that Realdania with 18 million DKK supports our project consisting of nature-based coastal defense with absorbent borders in the Danish municipality of Dragør!

Together with colleagues from COWI and in collaboration with Dragør Municipality, we are going to realize this complicated task including design solutions that do not resist the water, but rather absorb it and recognize it as an asset and a force of nature.

Behind our solution lies historical, scenic, accommodating, and technical analysis as well as an analysis of the relevant legislation.
