Instituut Gak is committed to contributing to the quality of social security in the Netherlands by investing in various social projects and scientific research. They aim to improve the social security and job market in the country by funding projects, research, chairs, and lectureships. As part of their efforts, they establish and maintain special chairs/lectureships in the field of social security at Dutch universities and colleges, promoting academic education in this area.

This education not only familiarizes students with the broad topic of social security but also provides opportunities for further specialization and scientific research under the guidance of the chairholder. Through these initiatives, Instituut Gak nurtures a new generation of professionals and researchers in the field of social security and the labor market. Additionally, they offer programs such as Step by Step - From Daycare to (Sheltered) Employment to provide support for participants in daycare programs who wish to further develop their skills and transition into the job market, promoting self-confidence, self-sufficiency, and personal growth
