Wat gebeurt er als een kunstinstelling de dialoog wil aangaan met de buurt? Janna Michael observeerde een jaar lang de artistieke interventies van hetInstituut voor Avantgardistische Recreatie WORM in de Rotterdamse buurt Cool-Zuid. Ze beschrijft in dit artikel drie casussen en gaat in op de kenmerken vandialogische kunst.Het Instituut voor Avantgardistische Recreatie WORM (WORM) zoekt een betekenisvolle verbinding en dialogische relatie met de buurt, de inwoners van Cool-Zuid in Rotterdam. WORM-medewerkers zien de snelle verandering die de buurt ondergaat door gentrificatie en verkennen daarom WORM’s positie en haar potentiële rol in de buurt. Ze zet in op het bijdragen aan sociale inclusie en diversiteit in Cool-Zuid. Tegelijkertijd is WORM geen klassiek buurtcentrum, maar een kunstinstituut dat innovatieve en creatieve processen ondersteunt. Ze ontwikkelt artistieke praktijken die buurtbewoners betrekken en die hiermee bijdragen aan een nieuwe positie van WORM.In dit artikel verken ik de ontwikkeling van deze nieuwe relatie en haar dialogische karakter door in te zoomen op verscheidene artistieke interventiesin en om WORM. Ik zal op basis van interviews, observaties en digitale documentatie beschrijven hoe deze praktijken gedurende één jaar zijn geëvolueerd. De analyse richt zich op drie casussen: Issue Wrestling, Eten en ontmoeten in Cool en een hoorspel van een lokale dj en kapper, Haar en Hem. Deze casussen verschillen qua betrokken kunstenaar, proces en doelgroep en vormeneen nog incompleet verhaal over WORM en haar positie in de buurt. Ik verkendeze interventies als voorbeelden van een dialogische relatie tussen artiesten publiek of deelnemers. Daarbij ontleen ik ideeën aan dialogische kunst(Kester, 2005) en in bredere zin aan dialogische relaties zoals Bisschop Boele inde inleiding van dit themanummer formuleert. Om juist de context waarindialogische kunst plaatsvindt te begrijpen, bestudeer ik niet alleen kunstpraktijken zelf, maar bekijk ik deze ook vanuit WORM als organisatie. Hiermee kom ik tot een voorlopig antwoord op de volgende vragen: hoe is derelatie tussen WORM en de buurt zich aan het ontwikkelen? en wat kenmerkteen dialogische relatie tussen kunstinstituut en buurtbewoners?

This is a serious game called Re-Organise. It is a cooperativeboard game about creating closed loops in the circular economy. The game represents an agro-industrial park in which different types of companies aim to use each other's waste streams as a material and/or energy resource. To do so, the players need to collaborate and (often need to) invest in processing technologies. The game is licenced CC-BY. To use it, the supplementary materials can be downloaded for printing. We kindly ask you to cite this game according to the pure reference.

Over the last decade, the concept of a circular economy, an industrial economy that is restorative or regenerative by intention and design, has gained increased attention of policy makers, industry and academics. Recently the number of innovation projects, set up by local governments, communities, non-governmental organizations and businesses, to experiment with new sustainable technologies for a circular city, has increased substantially. This paper aims to explore how in this emerging field different stakeholders collaboratively create value and develop a viable sustainable business model. We do so by building on business model literature and literature on innovation networks and combining these with insights on value outcomes and learning from strategic management. For this study we take a qualitative research approach, building on four innovation projects for a circular city, characterized by collaboration of a wide variety of stakeholders, each being initiated and coordinated by a different stakeholder type. The findings show an emphasis on technical and organizational learning, influencing expected and unexpected value outcomes. The main contribution of this paper is a conceptual framework to analyse value creation and capture within the context of open partnerships through different learning types. Learning proves to be an effective mechanism in innovation networks to create and capture more economic, environmental and social value then initially aimed for.

This study investigated the association of fatigue and cognitive complaints among employees post-cancer diagnosis, with work-related outcomes, and moderation by cancer-related anxiety. A survey was carried out among workers 2–10 years after cancer diagnosis. Employees without cancer recurrence or metastases were selected (N = 566). Self-reported fatigue and cognitive complaints were classified into three groups. ANOVA’s and regression analyses were used, controlling for age. Group 1 (cognitive complaints, n = 25, 4.4%), group 2 (fatigue, n = 205, 36.2%), and group 3 (cognitive complaints and fatigue, n = 211, 37.3%) were associated with higher burnout complaints and lower work engagement, and group 2 and 3 with lower work ability. Cancer-related anxiety positively moderated the association of group 3 with higher burnout complaints. Employees with both fatigue and cognitive complaints report less favorable work functioning. Cancer-related anxiety needs attention in the context of burnout complaints.

Iedereen op het platteland kent het geluid van buitelende kieviten in het voorjaar wel. Een parmantige vogel met zijn zwart-witte verenkleed, brede vleugels en statige kuif. De kievit hoort bij het Nederlandse weidelandschap. Overal in Nederland kun je de kievit aantreffen. Een soort die daarnaast sterk verbonden is met onze cultuur. De kievit en de mens hebben al een lange geschiedenis samen, ook in de bescherming van deze soort.

It is of utmost importance to collect organic waste from households as a separate waste stream. If collected separately, it could be used optimally to produce compost and biogas, it would not pollute fractions of materials that can be recovered from residual waste streams and it would not deteriorate the quality of some materials in residual waste (e.g. paper). In rural areas with separate organic waste collection systems, large quantities of organic waste are recovered. However, in the larger cities, only a small fraction of organic waste is recovered. In general, citizens dot not have space to store organic waste without nuisances of smell and/or flies. As this has been the cause of low organic waste collection rates, collection schemes have been cut, which created a further negative impact. Hence, additional efforts are required. There are some options to improve the organic waste recovery within the current system. Collection schemes might be improved, waste containers might be adapted to better suit the needs, and additional underground organic waste containers might be installed in residential neighbourhoods. There are persistent stories that separate organic waste collection makes no sense as the collectors just mix all municipal solid waste after collection, and incinerate it. Such stories might be fuelled by the practice that batches of contaminated organic waste are indeed incinerated. Trust in the system is important. Food waste is often regarded as unrein. Users might hate to store food waste in their kitchen that could attract insects, or the household pets. Hence, there is a challenge for socio-psychological research. This might also be supported by technology, e.g. organic waste storage devices and measures to improve waste separation in apartment buildings, such as separate chutes for waste fractions. Several cities have experimented with systems that collect organic wastes by the sewage system. By using a grinder, kitchen waste can be flushed into the sewage system, which in general produces biogas by the fermentation of sewage sludge. This is only a good option if the sewage is separated from the city drainage system, otherwise it might create water pollution. Another option might be to use grinders, that store the organic waste in a tank. This tank could be emptied regularly by a collection truck. Clearly, the preferred option depends on local conditions and culture. Besides, the density of the area, the type of sewage system and its biogas production, and the facilities that are already in place for organic waste collection are important parameters. In the paper, we will discuss the costs and benefits of future organic waste options and by discussing The Hague as an example.
