Focal point
Location
National Academic Research and Collaborations Information System (NARCIS) is the main Dutch national portal for those looking for information about researchers and their work. NARCIS aggregates data from around 30 institutional repositories. Besides researchers, NARCIS is also used by students, journalists and people working in educational and government institutions as well as the business sector.
NARCIS provides access to scientific information, including (open access) publications from the repositories of all the Dutch universities, KNAW, NWO and a number of research institutes, datasets from some data archives as well as descriptions of research projects, researchers and research institutes.
This means that NARCIS cannot be used as an entry point to access complete overviews of publications of researchers (yet). However, there are more institutions that make all their scientific publications accessible via NARCIS. By doing so, it will become possible to create much more complete publication lists of researchers.
In 2004, the development of NARCIS started as a cooperation project of KNAW Research Information, NWO, VSNU and METIS, as part of the development of services within the DARE programme of SURFfoundation. This project resulted in the NARCIS portal, in which the DAREnet service was incorporated in January 2007. NARCIS has been part of DANS since 2011.
DANS - Data Archiving and Networked Services - is the Netherlands Institute for permanent access to digital research resources. DANS encourages researchers to make their digital research data and related outputs Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable.

Displaying 551 - 555 of 1863Ecosysteemdiensten in het Gebrookerbos
Alterra heeft in 2011 in samenwerking met DLG een aantal studies uitgevoerd naar de mogelijkheden om het concept ecosysteemdiensten in te zetten bij ruimtelijke planvorming. Een van de pilots, die zich aandiende kwam uit Heerlen. De Gemeente wil graag dat private partijen en burgers (ook groepen van bewoners, stichtingen en verenigingen) participeren in de ontwikkeling, aanleg en beheer van de nieuwe groen-blauwe zones, zodat het gebruik wordt vergroot en de kosten voor de gemeente beperkt blijven.
The ethno-politics of water security: contestations of ethnicity and gender in strategies to control water in the Andes of Peru
This thesis is the result of a multidisciplinary research which tries to explain water injustices and the threats to water rights access and control experienced by indigenous peasants of the Peruvian Andes. It attempts to contribute to the analysis of the interactions between ethnicity and gender, and to understand how these form an intrinsic part of the contemporary ethno-politics of water. It also critically analyses the role of state interventions and international financial aid programmes in irrigation development and peasant communities.
