About FaF

The European project Freude am Fluss stands for a new approach to flood risk management:

  • Development of innovative techniques for the adaptation of housing, land use and human activity on the floodplain
  • Development of a joint planning approach

Naturally, this approach raises new concerns and challenges. The Freude am Fluss answer to these concerns and challenges is international cooperation.

Taking part in this European endeavour are universities, governmental and water authorities, local communities, and public organizations from France, Germany and the Netherlands.

In short, Freude am Fluss is an innovative concept that can fundamentally change the way our river basins are being managed.
