This year’s the International Hanseatic days and the International Hanse Congress theme is “water connects”. Hanseatic cities are originally situated close to water. Water is a very important topic when we talk about the effects and threats of climate change. How can we protect our Hanseatic cities against the effects of climate change? We invite our Hanseatic cities to participate in this challenge!

Every Hanseatic city can participate in this challenge with a self-organized team in which Research, Education, Entrepreneurship and Government are connected. With your team you will develop a concept that answers the following question; How can we protect our Hanseatic cities against the effects of climate change?

You will develop your idea in a pressure cooker. During this pressure cooker you will be able to listen to inspirational speakers and experience energizing working methods. In the end 5 teams will be selected to present their ideas during the international Hanse Congress.
