  • Conditions for involving vulnerable citizens in co-production

    Open AccessMenno Hoppen, Taco Brandsen et al.ARTICLEPublic Management Review2026

    This article investigates the conditions enabling vulnerable citizens’ involvement in co‐production through an ethnographic study of a Dutch self‐managed homeless shelter. The shelter’s model delegates significant daily responsibilities and decision‐making authority to service users, challenging traditional provider‐led approaches. Findings reveal that effective co‐production depends on a well‐aligned programme structure, group commitment, sustai…

  • Co-production with vulnerable people

    Open AccessTaco Brandsen, Marlies Honingh et al.ARTICLEPublic Management Review2024

    In the article we explore when professionals engage in co-production with vulnerable people, which could improve the inclusiveness of public services.The study was conducted in mental health care, through a survey with co-produced scenarios, among 177 professionals in five organizational units in the Netherlands.The results show that professionals' willingness to co-produce is primarily related to characteristics of the client, specific aspects o…

  • Dutch boards governing multiple schools

    Open AccessLars Stevenson, Marlies Honingh et al.ARTICLESchool Leadership and Management2021

    Over the last decade the governance of primary and secondary schools in the Netherlands has by no means become simpler. This paper sketches recent policy developments and their consequences for the leadership of Boards of Multiple Schools (BMSs) and their school leaders. Thereof we describe the challenges BMSs in the Netherlands currently face to enhance educational quality. However, the existence of a wide variety of school board types and a lac…

  • Do boards matter? Studying the relation between school boards and educational quality

    Open AccessMarlies Honingh, Marieke Van Genugten et al.ARTICLEPublic Policy and Administration2020References: 44

    Boards are expected to contribute to an organization's performance. In the case of schools, this means that the board should contribute to educational quality. However, there is no scientific proof that this expectation is valid. The (growing) literature on boards suggests that the effects of school boards depend on variables, such as board behaviour and corporate governance. In this study, we present the results of a secondary analysis drawing o…

  • Definitions of Co-Production and Co-Creation

    Open AccessTaco Brandsen, Marlies HoninghCHAPTER2018

    This chapter examines the commonalities and differences between co-creation and co-production. It demonstrates certain ambiguities, which point to underlying variation, which can be used to identify different types of co-production and co-creation. Distinguishing co-production and co-creation as distinct categories of activity will help in making cleaner comparisons, allowing a deeper understanding of the social mechanisms that shape their intern…

  • Co-production in primary schools

    Open AccessMarlies Honingh, Elena Bondarouk et al.ARTICLEInternational Review of…2018Cited by: 10References: 7

    Co-production is the involvement of citizens in the design and delivery of services. In primary schools, this involves parents working with teachers to improve the educational development of their children. In this contribution, we present the results of a systematic literature review on co-production in primary schools to establish what research has been conducted and to what extent there is evidence on the effectiveness of co-production in this…

  • Why people co-produce within activation services

    Open AccessJoost Fledderus, Marlies HoninghARTICLEInternational Review of…2016Cited by: 7References: 34

    Activation services that aim at re-employment of jobseekers often suffer from ‘creaming’, i.e. selecting those who have the best qualifications to re-enter the labour market. New ways of delivery, such as co-production, are supposed to be less subject to selection mechanisms. To analyse whether co-produced activation programmes suffer from selection biases, participants in a local innovative activation programme ( n = 60) were compared to non-par…

  • Distinguishing Different Types of Coproduction

    Open AccessTaco Brandsen, Marlies HoninghARTICLEPublic Administration Review2015References: 43

    Coproduction of public services means that services are not only delivered by professional and managerial staff in public agencies but also coproduced by citizens and communities. Although recent research on this topic has advanced the debate considerably, there is still no consensus on precisely what coproduction means. This article argues that rather than trying to determine one encompassing definition of the concept, several different types of…

  • User co-production of public service delivery

    Open AccessJoost Fledderus, Taco Brandsen et al.ARTICLEPublic Policy and Administration2015Cited by: 11References: 63

    Engaging public service users as co-producers is expected to lead to more efficient services and better outcomes. What has been missing so far, however, is a solid theoretical basis to explain what compels actors to pursue co-production, or not, and what strategies they adopt in this pursuit. Building on established theories, it is argued that although co-production of public service delivery decreases uncertainty for users, it seems to increase …

  • Restoring Trust Through the Co-Production of Public Services

    Joost Fledderus, Taco Brandsen et al.ARTICLEPublic Management Review2014

    Co-production, the involvement of clients in the delivery of public services, is believed to foster trust. However, there is insufficient research on this topic to prove what is at present merely an assumption. This article gives theoretical insights into this relationship. First, it is identified that co-production relates to identification-based trust. Second, the most important theoretical mechanisms are identified that link the two concepts: …
