It’s up to us
Every day, more people are realising that the creation of a better, more equitable world is up to them.
Governments have a role to play, but a different effort is needed, with well-being at its core rather than profits. With more bottom up synergy and less hierarchy.
The Great Citizens Movement aims to facilitate this transition. By helping people create their own vision and translate it into a working reality – in a way that suits them best.
“Let’s make the world a better place,
one step at a time!”
The Great Citizens Movement was founded by Michaéla Schippers and Marloes Vis van Heemst. Prof. Schippers research interest covers goalsetting, team reflexivity, team performance, academic performance as well as ikigai (i.e. purpose in life), and life goals. She coined the term “life crafting” as a way to optimize performance and happiness.
She is also the founder of ikigaitv.nl, a platform for positive psychology.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. (Margaret Mead)
