Orvelte is in the process of implementing a participatory governance system. To contribute to such a governance system, this research explored international management structures first. A total of 53 UNESCO-status towns were analysed and three classes of management structures were distinguished. The class coined ?Heritage Governance?, which involves multiple stakeholders, aligns most with Orvelte?s case. UNESCO-documents of the towns that were classified as ?Heritage Governance? were analysed further and resulted in relevant themes of governance practices for Orvelte.}, url = {https://frw.studenttheses.ub.rug.nl/2152/} }
