In doing so, we are building on CollectiveKracht's successful events over the past two years and in particular the June 2023 meeting: 'Burgercollectieven en overheid: Genoeg geëxperimenteerd?!'
A road of many steps
It was clear even then: there is still a lot of work to do to improve the dialogue between all those active citizens and local officials, but we strongly believe that we as scientists can contribute to that! Think, for example, about developing tools, making scientific knowledge more accessible and mapping existing solutions and systems.
Together, these people possess an inexhaustible source of scientific and practical knowledge. We look forward to the next meetings!
