Friends in a Cold Climate: Schiedam-4
Joop Daalmeijer studied theology in Nijmegen. In the sixties, this city was like Moscow on the Waal, filled with students taking over the roles of professors, leading lectures and seminars. It was challenging to focus on studying amidst the lively debates on various topics unrelated to his field. With limited finances, Joop had to push through, determined to graduate. Seeking a change from the chaotic revolutionairy climate in Nijmegen, Joop seized an opportunity to participate in an exchange program at the University of Tübingen in Germany, where he completed his studies and graduated.
Joop was a self-described progressive Catholic who felt drawn to the Labour Party, though never officially joining except for a brief period. He transitioned into journalism. His focus during this period was on events in Latin America, particularly the rise of liberation theology, and the progressive movements within the Catholic Church, which faced opposition from conservative authorities. While climate issues were not a prominent concern at the time, the Cold War context significantly influenced their worldview.
Joop’s father had been imprisoned during the war, after being captured in a raid (razzia) before 1944. However, the father managed to escape and return to the Netherlands. When the parents later traveled to Switzerland on holliday, they passed through Germany without hesitation, unlike others who avoided Germany by going through France. Despite his father's war experiences, he never conveyed any negativity towards Germans, especially evident during youth exchanges when he had no issues staying with German families, finding them on the whole to be kind people.
Joop was part of the youth circle within the Foundation Schiedam Community, where they discussed policies and plans for the city's youth. One day, the director of the community suggested he join a youth exchange program to Esslingen, Germany, as a group leader. Embracing the opportunity, he participated in the program. Group leaders were tasked with giving speeches, often centered around the idea of the new Europe and its significance for the youth. They emphasized moving beyond the shadow of World War II towards a future of unity and cooperation. The German organizers, primarily members of the SPD, were dedicated to overcoming the past and fostering European solidarity. Their speeches stressed the importance of being good Europeans, transcending their German national identity.
For some, going abroad wasn't financially feasible, but the opportunity arose by these exchanges. It was a chance to broaden horizons beyond their usual surroundings. Despite coming from a family with limited means, where vacations meant visiting relatives in Brabant, these exchanges provided the gateway for Joop to foreign lands. Such experiences shaped his worldview profoundly, fostering a deep sense of European identity. This perspective carried over into his career as a journalist, including his tenure as editor-in-chief at broadcaster Wereldomroep, where managing an international team required skills honed from those early days of international interaction during youth exchanges. It all began there, learning to navigate international relations and understanding the importance of unity and cooperation on a global scale
"Do No Harm" Fieldwork data - Malawi

It consists of 6 audio recordings of focus group discussions the researcher held with residents in the districts of Rumphi and Karonga in Northern Malawi, 22 audio recordings of interviews with humanitarian professionals and government officials in Malawi, and 20 answered questionnaires duly filled by the said humanitarian professionals and government official
A bilingual dataset for testing web probing in the US and India: The example of measures of environmental change
To assess the feasibility of web probing in India, we conducted an online survey containing different probing questions in India and the US on the topic of environmental concern. The survey was available in English in both countries and in Hindi in India. The data was collected from December 2022 until May 2023 using the crowdsourcing platform Amazon MTurk. This resulted in 512 respondents from the US and 739 from India (English: 386 respondents, Hindi: 353 respondents). The data provides crucial insights into the performance of web probing outside the Western context and the comparability of measures of environmental concern

Friends in a Cold Climate: Schiedam-2b
NB This is the second of two interviews with Connie Eggink. Due to GDPR considerations the interview and accompanying visual materials are not open to public review. In 1970, Connie Eggink led a Schiedam exchange program starting in Esslingen, Germany. Esslingen played a significant role in organizing the exchange, which involved three other cities: Schiedam, Norrköping, and for the first time, Velenje from Yugoslavia. Otto Weinmann, a key figure in the Stadtjungendring, was instrumental in involving Velenje and promoting the European idea. The Velenje group stood out for being older and carefully selected to represent their country during the Tito era. Despite language barriers, the Yugoslavian group was intriguing for the other participants. The exchange garnered attention from South German Radio, which conducted interviews discussing perspectives on European unity.
In 1971, Connie's group traveled to Norrkoping, Sweden. They were invited to visit the Swedish Air Force, which was proud of its military equipment, showcasing their newly acquired F-13 aircraft. Connie was impressed by the presence of many women in the military, reflecting a more advanced state of gender equality compared to the Netherlands at the time. Concerns about the Iron Curtain were prevalent, with a collective desire to prevent intrusion from communist nations. The group expressed relief that countries behind the Iron Curtain were capable of defending themselves, though there was a reluctance for NATO involvement.
Annually, a meeting convened in Esslingen where administrators from various regions gathered to arrange exchange programs, ensuring simultaneous involvement of three groups from three countries. Photographs from these meetings captured the stark contrast between Dutch representatives, characterized by their casual appearance with beards and long hair, and officials from France, Germany, Italy, and Sweden, who appeared more formal and well-groomed. These meetings involved decision-makers such as administrators, councilors, and mayors, who were keen on their cities participating. Despite diverse backgrounds, they shared a commitment to promoting peace, driven by their experiences of war and a determination to prevent its recurrence, marking the ethos of their generation.
Connie was 18 or 19 when she joined the community. “You have grand ideas at that age. I've always been interested in languages; I found foreign languages fascinating at school. I've always tried to learn as many different languages as possible because it helps you understand other cultures and people.” Later on, she traveled extensively as a backpacker through South America, North Africa, and Africa to meet people and understand why they do what they do. She also pursued studies in psychology to seek understanding for what motivates people, why they act the way they do, why they stand opposed to each other instead of alongside. She had the idea for many years that youth exchanges did have an effect lasting 10 or 20 years. However, Connie thinks society has changed and that not much remains of what was created back then. She thinks the generations who are in their thirties now are not very concerned with this kind of thing anymore. (Project Friends in a Cold Climate 2023

Dit project betreft de doorontwikkeling van een tool voor jongvolwassenen met een lichamelijke aandoening (zie https://www.nivel.nl/nl/tool-bodymap-maken-hulpmiddel-bij-het-praten-over-behandellast) naar de doelgroep van jongeren met psychische problemen. Voor sommigen van hen is het lastig om zich te uiten over moeilijke onderwerpen en dat ter sprake te brengen bij zorgverleners. De unieke tool ondersteunt het (samen) nadenken over onderwerpen en het bespreekbaar maken met zorgverleners
Interview R2G3 met derde generatie_kleinkind van oorlogsgetroffene Indonesische archipel
Interview in het kader van onderzoek naar de voortleving van de herinneringen aan de Tweede Wereldoorlog in drie generaties maar ook over ervaringen met verschillende oorlogen, conflicten en migratie daarna en de invloed hiervan op (familie)relaties, identiteit, psyche en vrijheidsbeleving. De titel van het onderzoek is 'Oorlog en vrijheid in drie generaties: herinneringen aan de Tweede Wereldoorlog in Indonesië'. Voor dit onderzoek zijn interviews gebruikt van drie generaties van vijf families. De interviews met de eerste generatie, die de Tweede Wereldoorlog in Indonesië en de daaropvolgende migratie naar Nederland zelf heeft meegemaakt, zijn tussen 1999 en 2013 afgenomen in eerdere interviewprojecten (leeftijd geïnterviewden: 68-90). De interviews met een kind (59-70) en kleinkind (19-49) van de oorlogsgetroffene zijn in het kader van dit onderzoek afgenomen. Het onderzoek is onderdeel van een breder onderzoek genaamd 'Oorlog en vrijheid in drie generaties'
