Municipality of Delft
The Municipality of Delft is responsible for welfare, youth healthcare, and youth care services. It oversees policymaking and manages partnerships with service providers to support residents, particularly the youth. The core focus is on addressing the needs of the residents, while ensuring that welfare and care services are both accessible and close to the community.

Erasmus Medical Center Rotterdam
The health of expectant parents and the child’s first 1,000 days determine health (disparities) and socioeconomic (dis)equality later in life. Prevention in this early life course, aimed at a healthy start, can create opportunities to cope with later medical and social problems. This requires cooperation between (birth) care professionals, care providers from the medical domain and municipalities. Under the heading “social obstetrics” and Healthy Start, the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology at Erasmus MC is working on innovations and research.
From this group, Adja Waelput and Rachita Munshi are involved in the Impact Narrative Tool.
Erasmus University Rotterdam
Researchers Erika Hajdu, Latiffah Salima Baldeh, Dr. Stefan de Jong and Tatiana Abi Aad are involved in the Impact Narrative Tool from the Evaluating Societal Impact project team at Erasmus University Rotterdam.
National Center for Youth Health
The National Center for Youth Health (NCJ) is a prevention expert and ally in improving children’s health and parental supports. We know that focusing on prevention – actively promoting and protecting children’s health – pays off. The sooner we prevent (health) problems in a child’s life or family, the better.
The NCJ’s expertise is beneficial for prevention professionals, helping them locate necessary knowledge, skills and networks. NCJ advisors identify, confront, support, and inspire. Solicited and unsolicited.

Healthy Start
The impact-driven programme Healthy Start explores the early-life origins of disparities in health and wellbeing from a transdisciplinary perspective. In this way we can identify early-life opportunities and co-create innovative preventive strategies with our partners, leading to better health, wellbeing and participation for future generations. Healthy Start is part of Convergence, a collaboration between TU Delft, Erasmus MC and Erasmus University Rotterdam in which we combine forces and cross boundaries between institutes and disciplines to create new perspectives and solutions for the urgent and complex societal issues of our time.
