| dc.description.abstract | The national government of The Netherlands states that every municipality has to become fully climate adaptive by the year 2050 but does not indicate how to achieve this. Therefore, it is necessary to start integrating climate change adaption within the process of spatial planning. The research will result in answering the main research question: ’How do municipalities in the province of Limburg integrate climate change adaption in spatial planning and which conditions advance or hinder mainstreaming?’ The questionnaire has resulted in a rank to the degree to which mainstreaming is, or is not applied in the municipalities in the province of Limburg as well as Nieuwegein (included to find out whether influencing factors differ per region). Based on this score, the two ‘best’- and the two ‘worst’ mainstreaming performing municipalities have been used in a case study to investigate why there is a difference in the degree to which mainstreaming climate change adaptation is integrated within the spatial planning practices of a municipality. The case studies investigated which mainstreaming strategies are present within the municipalities in Limburg. The case studies also investigated the factors influencing mainstreaming climate change adaptation within the municipalities. Furthermore, the interviews resulted in two additions to the current influencing factors, being the media and size of a municipality. | en_US |
