Dialogic supports governments, executive organizations, and vital providers in various ways to enhance the resilience of the Netherlands, both in ensuring safety and strengthening resilience. We are particularly focused on the following themes:
- Economic security
- Knowledge security
- Vital processes and vital sectors
- Resilience, risk, and threat analyses
- Digital resilience
When it comes to (digital) resilience, the theme strategic autonomy often plays a significant role. For policymakers, there is a crucial trade-off with major economic consequences. On one hand, the Netherlands needs to be less dependent on foreign providers or technologies. On the other hand, it is essential to continue using technologies and services that are not available within the Netherlands. Additionally, there are sometimes high transition costs in reducing dependencies, and transitioning can pose risks in the short term depending on the situation.
Through policy research, this trade-off can be better understood, leading to the development of more effective policies. Typically, this begins with a thorough risk analysis of current dependencies. Following this, a scenario analysis and an assessment of alternatives can determine how this might evolve in the future. Based on this, an action plan can be developed to reduce dependencies where necessary. This may include measures that not only have a positive impact on resilience but also a positive economic effect. For example, think of competition-stimulating policies in the context of (for instance) European DMA and DSA legislation.
