Visit to VLIZ and DEME
What is happening at the Flemish sea side?
The holiday season is quite over, so the answer to this question has nothing to do with tourism but everything with water research and technology. During this BIWA sea event we visited the Vlaams Instituut voor de Zee (VLIZ or Flanders Marine Institute) in Ostend where we were introduced to the research and activities that take place at the institute and learned about DEME’s activities in the North Sea.
The program looked as follows:
14u30 - arrival and welcome
15u - DEME presents de Blauwe Cluster and the innovatie project “Coastbusters” (ecosystem based coastal defense)
16u - VLIZ presents its activities
17u - Visit to the Simon Stevin research boat of VLIZ
18u - Closing network reception
