Strategy development – background information

The Kent and Medway Local Nature Recovery Strategy has been developed with wide participation and undertaken in a transparent manner.  Throughout the course of the work, reports have been published outlining how the Strategy arrived at various stages – often as a result of a series of stakeholder workshops.  All the reports have been collated and set out below, so that anyone new to the Strategy, or those wishing to  refresh their memories, can see the various steps the Strategy went through to get to the draft presented for consultation.

There is also a collection of the policy and guidance the project worked to in developing the Strategy.
