The Dutch Wavemaker program builds a community of young water ambassadors with a range of partners. These water ambassadors - the Dutch and international Wavemakers - are specially trained water sport talents and students who study water-related topics at Dutch institutes for higher education.

They are especially capable of reaching a new generation and making them enthusiastic for topics and questions in the area of water, both in the Netherlands and abroad. Surrounding their activities, new networks emerge. Businesses, governments and sports related organizations work together to elevate and share water awareness and knowledge on water management and environment.
