Abstract

Planning for nature in the Netherlands will become more important in the future to battle climate change. It is already known that nature areas have a positive influence on the ecology of areas. However, it could also be possible for nature to have a positive effect on local expenditures. Therefore, this research aims to research the effect of nature areas and their visitors on local expenditures and differences between managed nature and new nature. A survey has been used to collect the data for this research. The results showed that approximately 1/3 of the participants visited facilities when visiting nature areas, spending on average 7.75 euro. Showing that nature areas can positively influence the local expenditures. However, there are no significant differences between managed nature and new nature regarding their local expenditures.
