Monitoring van groene burgerinitiatieven: methodiek, indicatoren en ervaring met pilot en nulmeting

To inform the Assessment of the Dutch Human Environment (Balans van de Leefomgeving), PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency needs a quantitative measure of the size and scope of green citizens’ initiatives and their impact. The need for this information reflects the ambition of many government authorities to bring the wider community, including individuals, into closer contact with nature and involve them more in nature policy. This report describes a methodology for monitoring green citizens’ initiatives. Further indicators and main findings are given of the methodology used in a pilot project and a baseline assessment.
