C) Hybrid arrangements

Description of the governance mode

According to the NATURVATION's NBS-Atlas that distinguishes three categories of governance arrangements, hybrid arrangements refer to a mix of responsibilities between government and non-government actors.

Brief governance scenarios presenting hybrid arrangements

1. A new take on affordable housing through community owned and developed dwellings
2. Envisioning and co-creating sustainable urban neighborhoods by reaching across institutional boundaries
3. Bringing sustainable infrastructure to all - carefully engaging in public-private partnerships
4. Trusting civil society and residents to co-shape regeneration projects in deprived neighborhoods

Detailed governance interventions presenting hybrid arrangements

The following detailed descriptions of real world experiments (mostly within EU-funded projects) have inspired and substantiated the brief governance scenarios above.

1. Community led affordable housing in Brussels
2. Co-creation of a sustainable neighborhood in Freiburg
3. Public-private partnerships for sustainability infrastructure in Athens
4. Regeneration of a deprived neighborhood in Rotterdam
