MOVISIE International
MOVISIE is the Netherlands centre for social development. Our mission is to promote the participation and independence of citizens. We do this by supporting and advising professional organizations, volunteer organizations and government institutions.
Themes
Five themes are central to our work: effectiveness and professionalisation; participation and inclusion; domestic and sexual violence; social care; local citizenship.
Ambition
MOVISIE aims to contribute to a society in which people are empowered to the maximum of their capability.
Involved and results-oriented
MOVISIE is involved, demand-driven and results-oriented. We gear our services to the needs in our field of work. And we want our results to be measurable wherever possible: to make our contributions to society transparent. In our work we take account of the diversity of people to avoid exclusion of particular groups.
Who we work for
MOVISIE is a not-for profit organization and in 2009 approximately 50% of our budget comes from the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport. This budget is earmarked and amongst others MOVISIE carries out numerous projects emanating from the Social Support Act (Wmo). Under the Act, the municipalities and local institutions are responsible for setting up social support. Therefore MOVISIE works closely together with local partners. Besides we work with a wide range of (care) institutions, foundations, provinces, other ministries and companies. Professionals are invited to make direct use of the knowledge and expertise of MOVISIE. We are on hand to offer tailor-made advice and support in response to your specific queries and needs.
