Studio Plantaardig

If there’s one thing we can do directly to fight the climate crisis, it’s eat more plant-based food, and less meat, fish and dairy. The Studio Plantaardig podcast explores how we can make the switch from an animal-based to plant-based diet. What adjustments are needed? And what surprises does tomorrow’s menu have in store for us?

Bureau Burgerberaad

Bureau Burgerberaad‘s dream is a democracy in which politicians and residents work together to solve tough issues and shape the future together. Citizens’ councils play a crucial role in this – provided they are done well.

With support from Stichting Goeie Grutten, Bureau Burgerberaad is researching, on the one hand, the needs of non-attached residents of a (municipal) citizens’ council to be involved and what is the best form for that. And on the other, how to make it easier for municipalities to do so.

EDRi

The European Digital Rights network (EDRi) is a collective of 50+ NGOs, experts, lawyers and academics who are all working to protect and advance digital rights in Europe (and beyond).

With support from SGG, EDRi can expand its work against spyware, encryption threats and other disproportionate state surveillance that impacts human rights and democratic principles.

This includes a special focus on groups such as journalists, whistleblowers, human rights defenders and racialised and marginalised groups, who have been systematically over-guarded and discriminated against.

Expertise center SPOON believes that everyone has the right to request information from the government through a Freedom of Information request (Woo request). They reinforce this right through policy advocacy, legal procedures, knowledge sharing, and smart tools.

The momentum is there, with the new Open Government Act and dissatisfaction with its practical implementation.
