In the Unie program, we discuss all forms of resistance with all kinds of resistance heroes: musicians, poets, actors, policymakers, and festivalgoers. How can we organize ourselves in times when disorder is the order of the day? How do we leave our islands behind, and how do we mobilize as citizens – on both a large and small scale? All this with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as our continuous guide.

Because keeping the conversation going is precisely what is important in times of fragmentation, De Unie is opening its doors wide. Join Vlieland residents (and ITGWO staff) for a meal, listen to an uninterrupted reading of Lieke Marsman's 'The Poet and the Devil', and discover how gentle forces have taken shape following Jerry Afriyie's call last year: who is taking over the baton?
