Many of our graduates go on to work for (local) public administrations, (inter)national associations and NGOs with a social transformative mission, advocacy organisations, grassroots community organisations, trade unions and political parties, as well as (social) enterprises and cooperatives. Because of the programme's focus on organising principles, processes and practices, graduates will be most suited to take up positions with a wide range of employers who are always on the lookout for people with a critical understanding of institutions, governance, civil society and social impact and change.
