The ‘region’ has increasingly become an entry point for inducing a transition towards sustainable food provision, environmental quality for living and recreation, and/or economic competitiveness. Regional projects and strategies have assembled politicians, entrepreneurs, civil society organisations, and researchers in joint endeavours, with ambitious names such as Food Valley, Energy Valley, Health Valley, or Greenports. This report labels such endeavours as ‘regional transitions’.
Natuurlijk Kapitaal Nederland pilots Waterveiligheid : ecosysteemdiensten in de praktijk van het Deltaprogramma
Doel van dit project is om aan de hand van twee pilots te bepalen wat de mogelijke economische en ecologische meerwaarde is van natuurinclusieve oplossingen voor waterveiligheidsopgaven uit het Deltaprogramma. Daarnaast is het doel om te toetsen of en hoe die meerwaarde een rol speelt in de praktijk van het keuzeproces. Voor de pilot in het Rivierengebied is gekozen voor nadere uitwerking van ecosysteemdiensten en natuurwaarden bij enkele alternatieven voor een hoogwatergeul langs de Waal bij Varik – Heesselt.
