About IOS:
Are existing formal and informal institutions able to cope with challenges such as growing socio-economic inequality, the power of 'big tech', the climate crisis, terrorism, discrimination and distrust in government and science?

Within IOS, scientists from Utrecht University work together with social partners on this issue because only through joint efforts and constructive dialogue can we develop knowledge and solutions for the challenges of our time.
