English translation:intersectoral consensus
Explanation:
Hi,

I couldn't find any ready made phrase for you in English which would portray the meaning of the Dutch.
However, since it is related to specific social issues I think the following web site is appropirate:
http://www.psdn.org.ph/agenda21/unity.htm
On this web site the mention the following:
intersectoral and multisectoral consensus
social unity and harmony
social cohesion/harmony

I think what you are looking for is either 'intersectoral consensus' or if you are more daring 'intersectoral cohesion/harmony'

Good luck!

I had already surrendered to "intersectoral" so "consensus" was the "klap op de vuurpijl"
that I needed.
Thanks

Explanation:
"Afstemming" invariably translates as coordination. Intersectoral sounds awful.
