Key points
Students of Technology In Politics (STIP) is a city council party in Delft with a young, refreshing vision of everything that happens in the city. According to STIP, knowledge is the strength of Delft, and therefore the knowledge economy and supporting entrepreneurs are central to STIP. STIP is committed to a lively city, where there is always something to do. A city that is not held back by unnecessary rules and where sustainability is about smart sustainability.
Tackle the housing crisis
STIP believes that living in Delft must be possible for everyone, but unfortunately the housing
market is completely locked. We break the housing shortage with movement in the market,
building more, and using the existing stock better. Shared living is the solution to the housing
shortage and prevents loneliness.
A city that comes alive
Delft buzzes with energy and creativity. STIP makes space for atmospheric bars and restaurants,
a busy music venue, and inspiring art. Furthermore, Delft must invite you to move, whether
you run through green spaces, skate through the city, or dance until the early hours.
Prepare Delft for a sustainable future
STIP works for a city that is ready for a sustainable future, by making our streets greener,
healthier, and more social. We ensure that we repair, reuse, and upcycle more. With wellinsulated houses, sustainable transport, and a heating network that uses Delft heat, we make
the transitions a success.
Put Delft's knowledge to use
In Delft, we work in a historic city on the world of tomorrow. Here we think up, make, and
apply ideas. Everyone deserves an equal chance. STIP believes in an inclusive economy that
works as a springboard for talent, with jobs for everyone. We value our local makers and
invite visitors to discover the versatility of welcoming Delft.
Delft takes care of each other
In Delft, we look out for each other, everyone belongs, and everyone can participate. With
focused attention on mental health and social connection, STIP tackles problems early. This
way we prevent these problems from becoming bigger. Every child deserves the space to
develop talents, and young people are involved in decision-making for Delft.
