Green-blue networks in Flanders (Gobelin) (EV-INBO)

Details

This project for the Flemish agency for spatial planning aims to operationalize the concept of green-blue networks (GBN) in order to support future policy and implementation actions. In a first step, a common-agreed definition of GBN will be developed in a participatory way with all concerned stakeholders, while considering biodiversity, climate and quality of life objectives. Based on this definition, a demarcation of the existing green-blue network in Flanders region and the potential for expansion and qualitative strengthening will be mapped. In a last step, agencies with concrete plans for GBN will be assisted in order to better understand the challenges and opportunities of implementation of GBN.
