GGZe, mental health care authority, is curious to find out the international point of view. On 1 October (2018), there will be an evening of discussing, listening and giving feedback on how mental health care is arranged and perceived in the Netherlands. 

GGZe mental healthcare professionals like to meet the wider international public in this region to better understand what needs to be done to have their services better meet the internationals’ expectations.

The format of this meeting will allow a lot of time for you to give your input and share experiences or ideas of yourself. The professionals will mostly be listening and asking further questions.

Feel free to forward this link to others who could be interested.
The event is free of charge, but registration is required: send a mail to i.martens@sge.nl.

The initiative for this forum was taken by SGE International and Healthcare for Internationals (H4i). They work together with other healthcare providers to exchange knowledge and experiences, with the common goal to make Dutch healthcare better meet the needs of internationals.  Prior to this forum, their International Panel met with professionals of mental health care provider GGZ Eindhoven to learn about each other.

The event is Monday, 01 October 2018, from 20:00 to 21:30 at SGE head office, Strijp Z, Tilburgseweg-West 100, 5652 NP Eindhoven.

In September, it will be the thirtieth anniversary of the Muziekgebouw. In honor of the jubilee, the theater is organizing a festival while also embarking on a ‘new course’

With this new course, the theater wants to reach a wider audience. A right step in the direction to solve its budget constraints.

“We have embarked on a new path with the development plan,” says director Edo Righini. “To achieve this, we are broadening the programming and involving different target groups in the development of new programs and initiatives. In this way we want to reach a larger and also broader part of society.”

Balance

“At the same time, our focus is on creating a Muziekgebouw where cultural content and cultural entrepreneurship are in balance,” Reghini continues. “The first results of this new strategy give us confidence that we are well on the way.”

Kick off

The anniversary season will kick off on September 10. The Philharmonie Zuidnederland will present a broad musical program with various special guests, the Muziekgebouw said. In addition, as part of the thirtieth anniversary, various celebrities will visit the concert hall during the year.

The legendary soul bands ‘The Temptations’ and ‘The Four Tops’ will be performing at the end of October. A surprise program by Hungarian pianist András Schiff is planned in February.

Sunday Funday

The Sunday Funday festival is being kicked off a day after the 30th anniversary. The Muziekgebouw plans to give lesser-known artists a stage with this recurring event. Less well-known performances have been less well-visited since corona, Muziekgebouw director Edo Righini previously told Studio040 . Sunday Funday must put an end to that.
