Bijzonder om te lezen hoe deze VR-ervaring mensen raakt en aan het denken zet. Dank Vincent Roozen voor deze mooie reflectie op onze simulatie. Juist dat besef - hoe snel financiële problemen kunnen ontstaan en hoeveel impact voortdurende stress heeft op het dagelijks leven - is precies waarom we deze ervaring hebben ontwikkeld.

Working together on accessibility
Collaboration with BISS helped us take a fresh look at a complex process like the social assistance application. By bringing together behavioral scientists, data scientists, and policymakers under the guidance of a design thinking facilitator, we developed an approach that is both human-centered and data-driven. Thanks to this interdisciplinary collaboration, we were able to truly take steps toward a simpler, clearer, and more accessible application process for our residents.
