A Transboundary Park

As the Dutch begin to experience two meters of sea level rise or more, millions of Dutch citizens will be at risk of displacement.

A mebeweegen, or “moving with the flow” scenario will have to be enacted. In the scenario, millions of people living along the western Dutch coast will have to move to high ground towards the eastern Dutch and German border. In the scenario, the intercultural aspect of the Netherlands will increase to new levels. Millions of people from various cultures and backgrounds. Not only will the Dutch and German interactions be more common but immigrants from Turkey, Morocco and Suriname will also be represented and involved in this heightened sense of a multicultural city.
