Collective Strength Collectieve Kracht

CollectiveStrength is a knowledge platform that connects citizen collectives in the Netherlands and helps them to overcome obstacles together. It is independent, free of charge and accessible to all citizens’ collectives. CollectiveKracht strives to form a bridge between the daily practice of citizens’ collectives and the research questions of scientists. Not only by unlocking knowledge and insights from existing publications and making them applicable but also by actively developing new evidence-based knowledge that is demand-driven and practice-oriented. In doing so, they strive to connect various scientific disciplines. Scientists look at citizen collectives from the perspective of different disciplines (law, social sciences, psychology, public administration, history, energy etc.) and different theoretical perspectives.
