In June 2021, Jan Jorrit Hasselaar and Elisabeth IJmker published a book titled 'Water in Times of Climate Change'. This book is a follow up of the 2019 Water Symposium and includes contributions from representatives from academia, politics, economics, and religion.
This book on water and climate change goes beyond the usual and predictable analyses, by bringing religion and values into a discussion that is often dominated by technocratic solutions. The three case studies of Jakarta, Cape Town, and Amsterdam demonstrate the challenges of water management in urban areas and the role religion can play in addressing them. With representatives from science, politics, economics, and religion, as well as young voices, the book stimulates a values-driven dialogue on issues of water in times of climate change.
The book is available through Amsterdam University Press
