I have a Dream
call it a vision if you:
I want to live in a world with true personal freedom of choice, equality of opportunity and the ability for people to thrive, which is balanced with a personal responsibility to contribute to the collective good.
I am convinced that without our communities we will never reach true sustainable development. I am also convinced that we do not need to “build” communities but instead we need to “guard” our communities.
To achieve my dream, I developed a three-phase synergistic model – dubbed Verbinding – that help us build coalitions of seemingly unlikely partners and pragmatic strategies for impact scale-up. With this model we identify root causes and biases of our current challenges and approaches, roll up our sleeves to work collectively on both implementation and scale-up. We can future-proof our efforts collectively.
