Closure of KIN Pact Network Subsidy

Following successful first and second collection periods, the third collection period for the KIN Pact Network Subsidy has been cancelled.

What’s in the first advice from the strategy and advisory council?

The Strategy and Advisory Council (SAR) of the KIN Pact issued its first advice on prioritising knowledge questions, which the steering group adopted. The SAR identified four key challenges: implementing Water-Soil-Network policy, adaptation versus acceptance, opportunities for modular solutions, and preventing displacement in scarcity. This advice provides direction for KIN, focusing on problem owners’ needs. Next steps include identifying problem owners and aligning with ongoing programmes. For more information, see the public summary or full appendix. Together, we aim for a climate-neutral and climate-resilient Netherlands.
