This research investigates the transition from information participation to consultation participation. This is done through interviews and case studies. The study begins by describing the methods and costs involved in this transition. Subsequently, it examines the extent to which developers benefit from this shift. Ultimately, the findings indicate that developers experience moderate improvements, including a better plan, increased support, and reduced objections. date: 2023 pages: 20 thesis_type: bachelor degree_programme: TP tutors_name: Busscher, T. tutors_organization: Fac.
