Board of inspiration

The board of directors is supported by a board of inspiration. This board consists of people with a broad interest and spectrum, and who play a prominent role in Dutch society.
The aim is to have a 10-member board of inspiration by 1 June 2020. Each member should have his or her finger on the pulse of the Dutch nation, which allows them to provide the board of directors with requested and unrequested advice. The board of directors will meet with the board of inspiration at least once a year, to discuss the results of the previous year and to present the ambitions for the following year.
