Response on report 'The impact of collaboration'

RUW and Otherwise organized several events last year about the Impact of Collaboration. RUW has now released a report with the results of these activities.

The Executive Board of WUR has read the report "The Impact of Collaboration" by the RUW Foundation with great interest. The report contains interesting conclusions and recommendations and supports WUR in its efforts to achieve open and participatory collaboration based on transparency. The report provides an insight into the conversations that were held during a dialogue and workshops on issues that are important to the participating students and staff. These are often dilemmas to which answers can only be found by working together. We also note that the report paints a fragmented picture of meaningful discussions within a relatively small setting. For this reason, we agree it is necessary to continue these discussions but within a larger forum, where input and representation from a wider group of our staff and students is possible. WUR also considers transparency to be of the utmost importance and will address this continuously.
