Young CEDA, CEDA-BE and CEDA-NL are joining forces to organise this event, bringing young and old peers together to travel back in time to discover the history of dredging and compare how techniques, project management and other aspects of dredging have changed over the years.

The event will be held on Tuesday 18th November from 15:00-19:30, at the Fletcher Hotel, De Reiskoffer, in Bosschenhoofd, The Netherlands.

We will start the afternoon with presentations and follow on with a pub quiz, where we hope young and old, at mixed tables, will enjoy the opportunity to share their knowledge in the race to be the winner.

The event will be held in English, so we hope to attract the international colleagues amongst us, especially those younger colleagues, who could really benefit from this knowledge-sharing experience.
