FRM strategies
Key fndings/issues of recent research
1. Context sensitve diversifcaton of FRM strategies– three resilience capacites
a. capacity to absorb 1)
b. capacity to resist 2, 3)
c. capacity to adapt and transform 3, 4, 5)
2. Alignment of strategies strategies infuence each other)

producton
4. Rules that balance legal certainty and fexibility
a. Need for clear, enforceable and enforced division of responsibilites and for
possibilites to change course/involve new actors
5. Availability of resources
a. Resilient FRG requires broadening for resource base → taking place through
decentralizaton and private investments
b. Balanced over strategies may require redistributon
6. Normatve principles for dealing with distributonal efects
a. Solidarity vs benefciary pays → need to discuss this in open, inclusive debate

Water quality hampers in the Netherland → whyn
- WFD-implementaton, despite all eforts: water quality improvement hampers
- Initatves on governance approaches, but when and how does it workn
