In episode four of Diepgang – the series in which One Planet Port gives the floor to people with their own critical perspective on how the port affects their surroundings – researcher Christel Voncken shares her story.
Christel moved to Schiemond to study, a neighbourhood right on the Maas in Rotterdam. From there she looks at the bond between the port and the people living in the city – a bond that has faded considerably over the past generations. Her diagnosis? What’s needed is relationship therapy.
Christel looks at how that bond can be strengthened again, and what energy justice has to do with it.
