Alex Roos is a Senior Advisor with the Dutch Rijkswaterstaat (RWS), Netherlands Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management. He is the inaugural International Fellow for Risk Management at IWR. He is working with IWR’s Risk Management Center in Lakewood, CO, in support of Corps levee safety activities.

The Corps and RWS have an ongoing partnership to promote and facilitate collaborative efforts that benefit the integrated water resources management policies of both agencies. The perspective of RWS staff members on levee safety and flood risk management and their experience in these fields is particularly valuable for Corps personnel and the development of robust risk management policies. As the International Fellow for Risk Management, Mr. Roos is helping to deepen the collaboration between the Corps and RWS.
