Caring for the Flevoland countryside - Civil participation and small landscape elements

Civil-participation in countryside management in irder to maintain and create a more attractive countryside.

Landschapsbeheer Flevoland is a NGO involved in countryside management (and also in the cities) in the province of Flevoland. Since the 1990’s it has been carrying into effect the conservation, restoration and development of small landscape elements that are characteristic of the Flevoland landscape. With 12 professionals and a lot of volunteers, we help enhance the contribution that individuals and organisations make to maintain and create a more attractive countryside.

We aim to combine ecological values and geomorphological characteristics of the landscape with today’s functional demands, emphasizing regional identity and the historic uses of land. We have contacts in the region of LAG-Escartons (Italy) and wants to cooperate on the theme of civil-participation and small landscape elements.
