During the panel, Maarten discusses the history and evolution of Stadswerk, from its birth as a platform to exchange information between municipal officers, to a national association that has policy influence in the spheres of public urban spaces across The Netherlands.
Maarten recognizes that greening the city while adapting to climate change and creating circular solutions to waste are a top priority in The Netherlands and across the world, and Stadwerk is working collaboratively with its members to create lasting change at the local and regional level.
