Abstract

To speed-up climate neutrality of Dutch cities National-government started 4 neighbourhood housing area innovation projects concerning citizen participation (IKS2). The participatory fascination of these projects lays in the gradations of citizen participation being: thinking-along, joining-in and investing-in. The conclusion of analyzing these projects are: 1. The sustainable results of citizen participation are the best in situations of thinking-along and investingin as long local government manages the control, and 2. Local actors have to be taken along from the start of such municipality projects, because they motivate others.
