Abstract

The government vision ‘The Natural Way Forward’ (2014) introduced the policy concepts of naturecombinations and the nature-inclusive approach. This study investigates whether national governmentagencies implement these strategies in national projects and what possibilities exist to strengthen this wayof working. The researchers made use of ideas from Evolutionary Governance Theory, a theoreticalframework for analysing the coevolution of discourses, actors and institutional frameworks. The workingmethods employed by national government agencies were investigated in four policy areas: wind energy,agriculture, water management and infrastructure. The study shows that nature-inclusive working andnature combinations are gradually being adopted in national government policies, programmes and projects,but that so far nature-inclusive working has been more the exception than the rule.
