As a water authority, it is the job of the  Waterschap Hollandse Delta (WSHD) to look to the future role of water in the dunes, polders, urban and industrial landscapes. By creating more space for the absorption and gradual release of water – like a sponge – the region can become more resilient to climate change. These landscape transitions are often accompanied by social transitions. The design of streets and cities is linked to different kinds of mobility. Greener cities and landscapes can contribute to health. In the energy transition, surface water can play a role in heating homes and cities through aqua-thermal energy. An integral view of different landscapes shows that ecological, economic and water systems are interrelated and can be mutually reinforcing. By focusing on multiple, integrated and natural solutions, the landscape can move resiliently with nature. If we do this well, we will organize a resilient and multi-layered security system for society, now and in the future. This requires an area-based organization of space, where economic functions follow water and soil conditions. Different interests come together in the design of the landscape. With this panorama, the WSHD can inspire its partners to work together on a sustainable region. The Waterkracht Panorama can also be viewed in a compact form as a leporello (in Dutch language).

All the instruments used in the Waterkracht Panorama have also been published as a card game for the WSHD.
