Debt Lab 070 (Schuldenlab 070)
‘It takes a city to solve debt’. Building residents’ financial and social resources to improve quality of life and adaptability to shocks and stresses.
The Debt Lab 070 (Schuldenlab070) has been set up to work on a debt-free The Hague. In the Debt Lab 070, over 25 private and public partners, including the municipality of The Hague, work together to develop, pilot, and evaluate solutions for debt and poverty. The Debt Lab 070 uses innovative instruments to finance some of the solutions like social impact bonds. Their motto ‘it takes a city to solve debt’ reflects their integral approach towards preventing and curing problematic
debt. Recently this initiative in The Hague has been scaled to the national level, named as SchuldenLabNL. Do you need financial help or support? Then contact one of the eight district offices in The Hague. https://helpdeskgeldzaken.nl/
