Abstract
The housing shortage is and will be one of the biggest societal challenges in the Netherlands for the future (ANP, 2022). This thesis tries to explore strategies within the field of urban planning to integrally approach the housing crisis in the Netherlands. The policy arrangements approach, which examines multi-actor policy networks (Arts et al, 2006), provides a framework for analysing and understanding integrated approaches within specific political and institutional contexts. To identify the role of planning within the spatial domain in the Netherlands, this thesis adopts a qualitative research design conducting semi-structured interviews, a policy analysis and a case study. The results reveal the persistence of obstacles hindering true integration, such as fragmentation, competition, and resource constraints. Despite policy documents advocating for an integrated approach, there are discrepancies between the desired approach and its actual implementation This study emphasizes promoting flexibility, collaboration, and effective communication in the planning process. However, the policy arrangements model may have missed important elements, so other theories are recommended to be explored for a better understanding of integrated approaches to housing.
