Bospolder-Tussendijken (BoTu) Bospolder-Tussendijken (BoTu)

For this initiative, Rotterdam residents and many other organisations signed a broad cooperation agreement. Residents, initiatives and entrepreneurs, the municipality, the housing corporation and the energy company are all working together in Bospolder-Tussendijken (BoTu). Residents wanted to enter into an equal partnership in which the energy transition would contribute to the development of their neighbourhood in a broad sense. A group of residents and parties from the neighbourhood put their heads together to find answers to questions such as: What values do we share, what do we find important? How can we work together intelligently? And, which projects can we get to work on now? They have now moved from being a housing corporation to an energy company.
