Abstract

Social housing fulfills a significant social role in the Dutch Housing landscape through the provision of affordable housing. Housing corporations are private organizations that operate individually but share similar ambitions. Exchanging knowledge among housing corporations could offer a way to improve effectiveness. Despite a significant body of literature on Dutch social housing, with much of it focusing on its historical context, literature on how housing corporations exchange knowledge among each other is limited. This thesis investigates which structures social housing organizations in the North of the Netherlands utilize to acquire and exchange knowledge. A qualitative case study discovered that the social housing sector is a close-knit network that is in close contact with each other. It is primarily through informal interactions that targeted exchanges of knowledge are facilitated. Through the exchange of knowledge a wide range of inquiries can swiftly be addressed, ultimately enhancing the effectiveness of operations.
