De Lokale
About Us
Stichting de Lokale is a Netherlands-based non-profit foundation that designs, develops, and operates civic-tech platforms and analytical tools supporting civil society, independent media, and institutional partners in complex environments.
We work at the intersection of technology, civic participation, and information resilience, delivering scalable digital infrastructure that can be piloted, adapted, and deployed across countries and sectors.
Our work integrates product development, applied research, and capacity building, enabling solutions that serve a wide range of partners — from grassroots civil society initiatives to international and intergovernmental organisations.
Through long-term collaboration with donors, research organisations, and public institutions, Stichting de Lokale contributes to democratic resilience, civic participation, and access to trusted digital tools in high-risk and rapidly changing environments.
What We Do
Digital infrastructure development
We design and operate modular, scalable digital platforms for civic participation, media resilience, and cross-border collaboration.
Applied research and analytics
We develop data-driven tools and methodologies for analysing complex social and information environments, including disinformation, civic engagement patterns, and network dynamics.
Civic-tech ecosystem building
We support the creation of interconnected digital ecosystems that link communities, organisations, and initiatives across countries and sectors.
Capacity building and institutional adoption
We work with partners to pilot, adapt, and scale digital solutions through training, documentation, and long-term institutional integration.
Partnership-based implementation
Our projects are implemented in collaboration with international donors, foundations, research institutions, and public sector partners.
