Ieder(in)

What Ieder(in) does

Ieder(in), legally Vereniging Ieder-In, is a Dutch national umbrella association (vereniging) headquartered in Utrecht that represents people with physical disabilities, intellectual disabilities, and chronic illnesses in the Netherlands. Founded before 2019 and registered as an ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling / Public Benefit Organization), the organization serves two primary constituencies: member organizations — patientverenigingen (patient associations) and lokale belangenorganisaties (local disability advocacy groups) — and the broader population of individuals with disabilities or chronic illnesses who benefit from its advocacy output. Its core mission is to ensure this constituency is heard in national policy, using the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as an explicit framework and ervaringsdeskundigheid (experiential expertise) as an operating principle.

The organization's product surface is centered on a WordPress-based web platform at iederin.nl that combines news, policy positions, lobbybrieven, standpuntdocumenten, and project portals, augmented by a set of dedicated sub-sites and modules: the L(in)k newsletter, Informatiepunt Wzd (informatiepuntwzd.nl) for the Care and Coercion Act, Meldpunt Ieder(in) as a reporting point for regulatory problems, Adviespunt Ervaringsdeskundigheid (nietsoveronszonderons.nl), Panel Ieder(in) for member feedback, and project sites including Week van de Toegankelijkheid, Zet ik de stap, Leidraad Toegankelijk Bouwen, Meerkosten, and Code Inclusief Digitaal Ontwerpen. Distribution occurs through direct member engagement, public websites, social media (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), an RSS feed, and in-person events.

Ieder(in) is funded primarily through recurring membership fees from patient and local disability organizations, supplemented by project-based subsidies and coalition partner cost-sharing. It does not sell commercial products or services. Governance is by a board compensated under the CAO Welzijn en Maatschappelijke Dienstverlening framework (€3,250 per board member per year, €4,600 for the chair). The organization has built a broad coalition of strategic partners including Coalitie voor Inclusie, Patiëntenfederatie Nederland, MIND, MantelzorgNL, Per Saldo, Alzheimer NL, KansPlus, LFB, LSR, FNV Landelijke Cliëntenraad, VGN, and Platform Klink, and operates exclusively within the Netherlands.

Core offering

Ieder(in) is a Dutch national membership association (vereniging) that advocates for people with disabilities or chronic illnesses. It provides collective advocacy, policy influence, and information sharing through its main website, topic-specific portals, member panel, newsletter, and reporting point. The organization uses the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as its compass for positions and operates on the principle of experiential expertise (ervaringsdeskundigheid).

Product overview

Ieder(in) operates a single integrated web platform (iederin.nl) as a national advocacy organization for people with disabilities or chronic illnesses. The core offering includes the main website alongside several specialized sub-platforms and modules: the L(in)k newsletter for communications, the informatiepuntwzd.nl sub-site for Wzd law information, the Melding reporting point, the Adviespunt Ervaringsdeskundigheid for experiential expertise guidance, and the Panel for member feedback collection. The organization functions as a membership-based association focused on collective advocacy, policy influence, and member support rather than a commercial product company.
