Why is it that plans for organising a stretch of the British coast at Thanet for Natura 2000 have been implemented successfully, while in the Weerribben-Wieden area of Overijssel, Netherlands, scepticism and mistrust about Natura 2000 are growing? Researchers from Wageningen University, part of Wageningen UR, compared the way that the plans for these two areas were compiled. Forging good working relationships with all concerned is crucial to heightening the chances of protecting the value of the nature in these areas.
