Over de Hobbel helps organizations and networks to understand and shape transitions. Our focus is on the human and societal side of sustainability, where people, systems, and nature come together.
Our work is integral and systemic, connecting the worlds of policy, science, and practice. This leads to solutions that are both socially supported and ecologically sustainable. We have extensive experience in the energy transition and circular economy, and we are deepening our expertise in transitions related to water, agriculture, and local ecosystem projects.
Organizations are supported with research and advice, project and program management, and the facilitation of learning networks, workshops, and meetings. This approach encourages learning, collaboration, and impact, and helps teams and stakeholders to see obstacles as opportunities to shape transitions in a fair, effective, and future-proof way.
Extensive experience has been gained in guiding, coordinating, and leading projects and consortia.
The connection between knowledge, practice, and policy ensures that transitions in energy, climate, and circularity are actually realized. This bridges the gap between abstract insights and concrete impact in practice.
Complex transition issues require bringing together the knowledge and experience of diverse stakeholders. By facilitating learning networks, communities of practice, workshops, and meetings, shared insights and concrete perspectives for action emerge.
At Over de Hobbel, we see research as a tool for real change. We delve into the complexity of transitions, understand how people, systems, and nature interact, question assumptions, and make obstacles visible.
With Over de Hobbel I guide and lead projects, programmes, and deals that accelerate social and/or ecological transitions.
