PREVIOUS EVENTS

22 January 2011
The year has kicked off with a conference on January the 22nd at the Dialogues House in Amsterdam. 14 people with innovative ideas presented their idea, to which participants subscribed. See the video below for a short impression of the kick-off conference.

21 May 2011 On May 21, the second event for A Call 2 Action was held in Utrecht to bring the ideas presented in January to a next level. Every action group held a co-creation session joined by experts in order to come up with a concrete action plan and a planning for the implementation for the rest of 2011.

17 September 2011
The third session was held on September 17. Here, the focus was on the implementation of action plans. In between the A Call 2 Action events, action groups are continuously busy with their plans. By bringing all the action groups together on the same date and place gives an extra boost to the actions that are being implemented by the various groups.
