Lecture: Is Breda becoming a National Park City?

Breda as a National Park City: What does that actually mean?
Breda has recently been officially designated as a National Park City. But what exactly does that title entail? And how did it come about? Is it an example of bottom-up democracy, where residents and local organizations take the initiative? And what is the role of the municipality in this process?

One of the ambassadors of the initiative, Iris Blom, explains the significance of this recognition. She shares what residents can expect, the opportunities it offers for the city, and what pitfalls there are in the implementation. The goal is to make the city greener, healthier, and more connected to nature, not only in the outdoor spaces but also in the way residents think and act.
