“Our researchers and students possess an incredible amount of knowledge and skills. We educate professionals—including international talent—with future-proof and sustainable skills. They come from all over the Netherlands and the world, and some of them choose to stay and work in the region. WUR aims to play a key role in shaping a sustainable and climate-adaptive model region. That’s why we participate in research programs and pilot projects in Arnhem and Nijmegen.”
