1. Description of the Challenge
The Dutch National Police has the crucial and unique task of maintaining law and order in the Netherlands. The Dutch National Police is called the “Politie” and consists of 25 regional police forces plus the National Police Services Agency. It is assisted by the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee, a military entity which, during peacetime, performs the duties of a normal police service.
2. Expected Outcome
The solution is to raise awareness and therefore facilitate behavioural change. An elaborate strategy of nudging to minimise disturbance to the essential work of the police.
