Abstract

The municipality of Groningen has initiated neighbourhood renewal initiatives in corporation with the residents in four of its vulnerable neighbourhoods. This study aims to (dis)proof the successfulness of these projects by answering the question, ‘How has the participation of residents of four vulnerable neighbourhoods of the Municipality of Groningen helped to create more successful neighbourhood renewal projects initiated by the municipality?’ Document analysis as well as a questionnaire show that while the municipality includes the residents the amount of control the residents have depended on the scale of the project. In addition the success of the projects is hard to proof, especially when looking at the residents' response and not only at the project plans. Further research could be done to get a more representative survey of the population to see how the residents see this program.
