In Memory: Ebel Smidt

This Saturday (04-01-2025), Ebel Smidt passed away—a man who dedicated much of his professional life to water resource management and international cooperation. 💧

Ebel made a significant impact, particularly in Egypt, where he played a key role in projects over the past 45 years that strengthened water management and collaboration with the Netherlands. His passion and dedication live on through the work he leaves behind.

A beautiful overview of the achievements in this field in two time lines, compiled by Ebel himself for Stichting NICC, serving as lasting tributes to his contributions and insights. See the two Egypt Timelines. (Countries and Water)

Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and all those who had the privilege to work alongside him.
