Municipality Tilburg

Societal Partner


Tilburg is the second-largest city in North Brabant with 228.000 inhabitants. It is the seventh biggest city in the Netherlands. Our municipality is known for its strong social profile.

Like every city nowadays, Tilburg faces societal challenges. In the Administrative Agreement of Tilburg, special attention is given to inclusiveness, sustainability and vitality. The Council of Mayor and Aldermen work together with the population of Tilburg to make progress in these areas.

Special interests in ENGAGE.EU: The municipality of Tilburg is gratefully accepting the invitation to become an associated partner of the ambitious European University Engaged in Societal Change, with Tilburg University as one of its members.

The municipality of Tilburg fully supports the Alliance in its transformation process to become an incubator for driving societal change based on academic excellence and working with society.

The municipality of Tilburg believes ENGAGE.EU will support the efforts by addressing the major societal challenges into its learning, research & innovation and societal outreach. It provides an opportunity for the city of Tilburg to further expand the existing collaboration with Tilburg University and become connected to other regions in Europe.
