The issue of water in cities is becoming an ever-increasing challenge because of urban spread and the fact that much of the world's population lives in cities. How do people access drinking water? Does waterrecycling offer a solution to water shortages and how should this be achieved? How should waste water and rainwater be disposed of and treated? Is urban water a potential source of energy and raw materials? How can we ensure that our cities remain safe as sea levels rise and rivers are affected by extreme weather and other demographic factors?

 

These are just a few questions that arise when we consider the issue of water in cities. We are interested in hearing your solutions! Enter the TU Delft Urban Water Movie Contest by sending in your film, lasting up to 3 minutes. The best film will win EUR 1,000!

 

The best three entries will also be premiered exclusively during TU Delft's Water Week (part of the 170th anniversary) and will be entered in the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA).
