Advancing societal impact through SSH-collaboration
SSH refers to the Social Sciences & Humanities. This domain consists of four sectors: humanities, social sciences, law and economics & business (both teaching and research).
The SSH-domain contributes greatly to societal welfare and economic prosperity in the Netherlands. It is invaluable for understanding complex social issues. For this reason, the SSH-council is strengthening the domain’s position.
The SSH-council works to ensure that the domain is resilient, well-connected, and equipped to make a lasting societal impact.
