We are dedicated to research and education that sustain communities and cultivate their future leaders. Our work is published in books and articles, freely accessible in digital form. We also offer a doctoral programme in multimodal systems science, designed to foster community leadership and advance social research. Alongside these academic efforts, our members take part in a wide range of community projects. Our foundation lies in the Erasmian humanist Renaissance and the Reformation. We look to the Dutch Republic as a historical example of Christian humanist principles put into practice with enduring success.
