Economic resilience

A large-scale, multidisciplinary project is ongoing in which we – together with practical partners – research ways in which we can improve women’s economic resilience in the Netherlands. Almost 35% of women in the Netherlands are not economically independent. The Dutch Economic Resilience Coalition (NEVCO) investigates how we can improve women’s economic resilience. Several interventions are tested, in which we suggest a fix-the-system-approach, rather than a fix-the-women-approach.

This project is financed by the NWO, together with Ministry of Education, Culture and Science and the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment. More information can be found on the NWO website.
