Survey data on “Collaboration and interdependent policy issues in a climate-resilient growth region (NOVEX) in the Netherlands"

Climate change is increasingly impacting vulnerable areas, especially those that are situated in riverine urban environments. To become more climate resilient, areas throughout the Netherlands are implementing new, integrative, policy programmes. One of those areas is the Zwolle NOVEX region, where increasing flood risks impact interdependent policy issues as diverse as housing, biodiversity, agriculture and energy. We conducted a document review, including policy and governmental documents, to analyse policy issues and actors relevant to our research. To identify whether these issues are interdependent, and if actors work on these interdependent issues, we distributed a survey within this region.
