Elmar Stroomer

totally agree! We should increase facilities that stimulate and challenge the creative mind.. I am not talking about coffeeshops. I am talking about frablabs, playgrounds, good (technical) universities, open, solid and solidary society and government..

What is today’s greatest strenght of the Netherlands, which we should embrace and keep for a bright future?

Pieter Parmentier

By far the best way to accelerate innovation in sustainability is to improve our networking. That is why I am working on a sustainability advanced network (SAN) in which people can find the expertise they are looking for. It will be a backbone to connect all networks and initiatives that focus on sustainability.enf@planet.nl

Borrow good ideas like there's no tomorrow. Progress may lie less in invention than in useful application.

No change ADD and ADD more that is a change and a chance
Thanks Denise to be connected

Main problem in implementation of sustainable development projects in the Netherlands is a too much of unsystemized talks between government, developers and citizens. Such a talks reducing econimical and environmental prosperity. Government and develpers stuck in salvation of risk problems- how to share them. Citizens and governement stuck in salvation what we want and how to achieve.

I would Introduce new bottop-up - top-down approach\framework of communication between government, developers and citizens. Where government and developers could agree on goals, define and quantify risks (which means risks could KNOWN) and could found solution to share risks or prevent them.
Government and citizens could agree on ambitions, ways to live and sustain (how far they would like to go.).As well as gov-t has to give a sufficient knowledge - what they are talking about...

I agree with Herman about feeling connected to the world. Focus on shared interests from people (who doesn't want a healthy planet?) instead of the current focus on the differences - especially religion related - between people around the world, so we can together come to creative ideas and create an exciting and sustainable world

Herman Jongejan

Feel responsable and connected to the rest of the world as your neighbour

Accountability as the new responsibility. Hence; transparency.

We are trying to figure out how YOU think the Netherlands can become one of the Top 5 Knowledge economies in the world.


Our question of today is: 

What is that one thing you would like to change in the Dutch society?
