"In the Netherlands, the rise of the ‘participation society’ has put increasing emphasis on involving \r\ncitizens in planning, designing, decision-making and governance. Public participation is \r\ninstitutionalized in all spatial planning processes. However, a gap can be noticed between the desired \r\nand the actual level of public participation. Aiming to close this gap is essential in order to provide \r\nbenefits in the form of more efficient interaction and better accepted projects. With the help of a case \r\nstudy on the EemsDollard2050 projects, this research aims to assess the why, who, when, and how of \r\ncitizen participation in a planning process, to find out how the perception of stakeholders about citizen \r\nparticipation in environmental planning processes aligns with how participation is secured in policy \r\ndocuments. For this, Arnstein’s ladder of citizen participation is used to assess the level of participation\r\nand to discern the difference between the actual and the desired level of participation. A literature \r\nreview found that participation is just institutionalized in the form of an involvement regulation, and \r\na right to challenge. This still gives policy makers a lot of freedom in the design of participation. \r\nRegarding the perceived participation of stakeholders, the data gathered from interviews and a survey\r\nsuggest that participation levels are dependent on the phase of the planning process, and on how the \r\nresidents are affected by the change. A shift towards higher levels of participation in earlier stages can \r\nbe observed not only in policy, but also in society, as environmental planning is argued to increasingly \r\nneed the input of residents."^^ .
