Preserving biodiversity by sharing knowledge with our partners

In 2020, Royal HaskoningDHV made a commitment to the Delta Plan Biodiversity Restoration. This is a logical consequence of our contribution to the Infra-nature Green Deal, which was completed in 2019. With this commitment we set ourselves the goal of "anchoring biodiversity naturally in all phases of our (infrastructural) work". Through the Delta Plan, we and various partners share knowledge and experience about biodiversity in relation to infrastructure.

An important goal of Royal HaskoningDHV is to use this knowledge to raise awareness of the importance of biodiversity among our clients and contractors. To achieve this, we explicitly question customers on the added value that infrastructure projects have on society, in terms of sustainability and biodiversity. The goal is then to help customers take steps towards sustainability and contribute to (or preserve) biodiversity. We do this by aiming at synergy between the technical challenge and opportunities for biodiversity in an iterative design process as early as possible in plans and projects.
