Psychology of social behaviour: Connecting science and society

I am an active member of the impact committee of the Kurt Lewin Institute, a national network of scientists in social and organizational psychology at 7 Dutch universities: VU Amsterdam (VU), University of Amsterdam (UvA), University of Groningen (RuG), Leiden University (UL), Utrecht University (UU), Maastricht University (UM), and Tilburg University (TU). The aim of the impact committee is to strengthen the connection between science and society, more information (in Dutch) via https://psychologievansociaalgedrag.nl. The Kurt Lewin Institute, together with the Dutch Association of Social Psychological Researchers (ASPO), organizes an annual popular science event in Tivoli Vredenburg, The social animal.
