Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

7.5.2 Closing Message

Course subject(s) 7. Towards Coalition Building

What an adventure! You have come to the end of a process of learning about taking the social context into account and moving beyond engineering to Build with Nature AND with People.

Well done!

We are sure you now realise how complex it is to engage with stakeholders meaningfully in their Building with Nature contexts, how difficult it is to do no harm, and how truly challenging it is to accomplish stakeholder-inclusive, ecosystem-friendly infrastructure development.

We hope that you have been inspired by our examples.

Thank you for participating in the course.

Sincerely

Jill Slinger and the BwN2 Team
