SUMMARY:ISS Leadership Programme
DESCRIPTION:Lead with impact in a changing global landscape\nGlobal challenges are becoming more complex\, while funding and support for international cooperation are increasingly under pressure. This raises urgent questions for organizations working in development: how do you prepare for an uncertain future\, and how can you effectively integrate the latest social science insights into your policies and programmes? \nThis executive leadership programme is designed to help you navigate that complexity and strengthen your organisation’s impact in a rapidly changing world. \nAbout the programme\nThe programme starts on Tuesday\, 1 September 2026 at 15:00 and runs until the final session on 15 December 2026. It consists of eight sessions delivered in a hybrid format\, allowing participants to combine in-person and online learning. \nThe ISS Leadership Programme includes four face-to-face workshops in The Hague\, each lasting 2.5 hours\, alongside four online sessions of 1.5 hours. While in-person participation is encouraged\, all sessions can also be attended digitally\, making full remote participation possible. \nWith a group size of 15 to 20 participants\, the programme offers an interactive and focused learning environment for senior professionals from across the international development sector. \nDeveloped as part of the ISS Leadership Programme and in close collaboration with the Hague Humanitarian Studies Centre\, the course connects key themes such as resilience\, risk\, vulnerability\, and sustainable development. Participants are encouraged to translate insights directly into action within their own organisations. \nWho should attend\nThis course is aimed at experienced professionals with at least ten years of experience in international development. It is particularly relevant for managers\, leaders\, strategists\, monitoring and evaluation specialists\, and business developers. \nParticipants typically come from donor agencies\, international NGOs\, think tanks\, philanthropic foundations\, development consultancies\, and international development banks. The programme is also well suited for directors\, board members\, and management teams looking to strengthen their strategic leadership. \nWhat you will gain\nThroughout the programme\, you will develop the knowledge\, skills\, and mindset needed to increase your organization’s impact. You will learn how to move beyond linear approaches and adopt more adaptive forms of programming\, drawing on complexity thinking to better address real-world challenges. You will gain insights into how development efforts can be strengthened by anticipating future risks and enhancing societal resilience\, while also learning from best practices across organizations. \nIn addition\, the programme focuses on practical skill-building. You will learn how to identify blind spots within your organization\, engage constructively with donors and investors\, and create safe and inclusive work environments where innovation is encouraged. \nOn a personal level\, the programme supports your development as a leader. It helps you build the confidence and creativity needed to challenge existing structures and to foster a more open and learning-oriented organizational culture. \nLearning experience\nThe learning experience is highly interactive and designed to encourage exchange between participants. You will work in a small group setting that offers space for reflection\, discussion\, and peer learning. Participants are invited to bring a colleague to one of the sessions\, and those joining from abroad can take part in an additional online intervision session at no extra cost. \nBeyond the sessions themselves\, you will become part of a dynamic network of peers and gain access to the ISS alumni community. \nPractical details\nEach session requires approximately two hours of preparation. All teaching materials are included in the programme\, and upon completion you will receive a certificate from the International Institute of Social Studies. The course fee is €2\,450. \nCourse materials\nAs part of the programme\, you will receive the book Foreign Aid and its Unintended Consequences by Professor Dirk-Jan Koch\, published by Routledge in 2024. This book is included in the course fee and will be sent to you by post upon acceptance. \nIn addition\, you will have access to a series of knowledge video clips that you can watch at your own pace in preparation for the sessions. \n	Apply now!

SUMMARY:Environmental Harm as an International Crime
DESCRIPTION:Explore how international law\, ecocide and visual storytelling can advance accountability for serious environmental destruction.\nWhat happens when environmental destruction is so severe that regulation\, compensation or civil litigation no longer seem enough? When should those responsible be held personally accountable—and could serious harm to the environment be treated as an international crime? \nFrom pollution and extractive industries to the destruction of ecosystems during armed conflict\, environmental harm can have devastating and long-lasting consequences for communities\, livelihoods and future generations. Yet international criminal law remains one of the least-used tools for addressing these harms. \nThis event\, organised by The Promise Institute for Human Rights\, Art Works Projects and The Hague Humanity Hub\, brings together photographers\, lawyers\, advocates and climate justice actors to explore how this may be changing. \nThe evening begins with the work of Oyewole Lawal and Edwin Ndeke\, Emerging Lens Fellows whose photography documents environmental degradation and its consequences for the people and communities living with it. Their work provides a human and visual starting point for a wider conversation about environmental destruction\, responsibility and justice. \nFrom there\, we turn to the law. International criminal law already provides some possibilities for addressing serious environmental harm through existing crimes\, including war crimes and crimes against humanity. At the same time\, a growing international movement is working to establish ecocide as a new international crime\, creating a clearer legal route for addressing severe and widespread or long-term environmental destruction. \nRecent developments are bringing these questions closer to legal practice. In December 2025\, the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court published its Policy on Addressing Environmental Damage Through the Rome Statute\, setting out how environmental damage can be considered within the ICC’s existing mandate. The Promise Institute for Human Rights at UCLA and Climate Counsel have also developed a Manual on Prosecuting International Environmental Crimes\, drawing in part on experience investigating the environmental consequences of the war in Ukraine. \nTogether\, these developments raise an important question: what would it take to move from recognising environmental destruction as an injustice to investigating and prosecuting it as a crime? \nSpeakers \nPhotographers in Conversation: \nOyewole Lawal — Photojournalist\, sociologist and Emerging Lens Fellow\, whose work explores the relationship between people\, communities and their environment. \nEdwin Ndeke — Photojournalist\, documentary photographer and Emerging Lens Fellow documenting social\, economic and environmental issues. \nSteve Bynum – Human Rights Advocate\, Journalist\, Producer\, Worldview Podcast\, and Executive Director\, Art Works Projects \nCommentators: [alphabetical]\nKate Mackintosh — Executive Director of The Promise Institute for Human Rights Europe\, co-author of the Manual on Prosecuting International Environmental Crimes and member of the Independent Expert Panel for the Legal Definition of Ecocide. \nNicole Ann Ponce — International Climate Justice Lawyer\,  Global Advocacy Lead at World’s Youth for Climate Justice (WYCJ) \nPatricia Willocq — Diplomatic director for Africa and Francophone countries at Stop Ecocide International\, Founder of Stop Ecocide Belgium\, Humanitarian Photographer\,  Visual Storyteller\,  Creative Strategist \nReinhold Gallmetzer — Appeals Counsel and Environmental Crimes Focal Point at the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court\, speaking about the ICC Prosecutor’s Policy on Addressing Environmental Damage Through the Rome Statute and the possibilities and limits of the ICC’s current mandate. \nHelena Szczupak (closing keynote speaker) — Legal Counsel at EcoJustice.earth\, Research Fellow at the Center for Human Rights Advocacy \nModerated by: \nLeslie Thomas\, Filmmaker and Human Rights Advocate\, Director of Programming\, Art Works Projects and MIRA \nOur speakers will explore what international criminal law can already do\, where its limitations lie\, and what recognising ecocide as an international crime could add. \nWe will look at questions including: \nWhen can serious environmental harm already amount to an international crime?\nWhat does criminal law offer that environmental and climate litigation does not—and where do other legal strategies remain essential?\nHow can environmental destruction be documented and evidenced in ways that can support future investigations and prosecutions?\nHow does applying existing international criminal law relate to the campaign to criminalise ecocide?\nWhat roles can lawyers\, investigators\, journalists\, photographers\, civil society organisations and climate advocates play in bringing the first cases forward?\nThe discussion will connect legal developments in The Hague with experiences and environmental harms occurring around the world\, including the particular relevance of the ecocide debate for African countries facing the consequences of extraction\, pollution and environmental degradation. \nProgramme \n17:00–17:30 Doors open\, registration and welcome \nLivestream programme begins at 17:30 \n17:30–17:40 Opening and introduction \n17:40–18:00 Visual introduction: Emerging Lens photographers introduce selected work and the environmental harms documented \n18:00–18:45 Panel conversation: Environmental Harm as an International Crime – existing legal tools\, environmental crimes and ecocide \n18:45–19:00 Audience Q&A and discussion \n19:00–19:10 Closing reflections and introduction to the exhibition opening on 3 November \nLivestream programme ends at 19:10 \n19:10–20:00 Networking drinks and exhibition viewing \nFrom visual evidence to environmental justice\nPart of The Hague Climate Week\nThis event is part of The Hague Climate Week 2026 and also forms the opening conversation of a two-day programme exploring environmental destruction through law\, photography and visual advocacy. \nOn 3 November\, the work of Emerging Lens Fellows Oyewole Lawal and Edwin Ndeke will be presented in a public exhibition and participatory programme at The Grey Space in the Middle\, looking more closely at waste\, consumption\, labour\, environmental degradation and the communities dealing with their consequences. \nTogether\, the two events ask how images\, lived experience\, advocacy and law can reinforce one another in making environmental harm visible—and turning recognition into accountability and action. \nAbout the organisers \nThe Hague Humanity Hub is a not for profit foundation based in The Hague\, the international city of peace and justice and home to hundreds of organisations working towards a better word. We offer an open and inclusive platform for changemakers to connect both locally and internationally\, building bridges across themes\, sectors\, and disciplines. \nArt Works Projects (AWP) is a Chicago- and The Hague-based nonprofit that uses visual storytelling\, new media and public engagement to confront human rights abuses and social injustice. Working with artists and partners around the world\, AWP creates exhibitions\, films and public programmes that connect powerful stories with dialogue\, advocacy and action. \nThe Promise Institute for Human Rights at UCLA School of Law is a centre for human rights education\, research and advocacy\, with locations in Los Angeles and Europe. The Promise Institute Europe advances research and practice in international law and human rights\, with a particular focus on their intersection with environmental and planetary justice. \nThis event is supported by HPM\, our livestream partner. \nPrivacy\nBy attending this event\, you acknowledge that photographs and/or video may be taken for documentation and promotional purposes by The Hague Humanity Hub.

SUMMARY:Beyond waste: People\, Materials and What We Leave Behind
DESCRIPTION:What happens to the things we consume once we no longer want them — and who deals with what we leave behind? \nAt the centre of this exhibition are the works of Nigerian photojournalist and sociologist Oyewole Lawal and Kenyan documentary photographer Edwin Ndeke. Bringing together projects from Lagos and Nairobi\, their collaborative storytelling shines a light on waste pickers: an often-overlooked workforce that plays an essential role in collecting\, recovering\, and recycling materials from growing urban waste streams. \nTheir photography provides the starting point for a wider conversation about our relationship with waste. Moving from the experiences captured in their images\, the programme explores the systems that produce waste and the environmental and social consequences that follow\, with a particular focus on textiles and fashion. \nTogether with researchers\, recycling practitioners and artists\, we will look at both the challenges — from textile waste and chemicals to patterns of production and consumption — and the alternatives. Through conversation\, demonstrations\, and hands-on activities\, visitors can explore recycling and circular approaches\, natural dyes\, sustainable creative practices\, and different ways of thinking about the materials we produce\, use\, and discard. \nThe evening invites us to look beyond waste itself and consider the people\, choices and systems behind it — and what we might do differently. \nBuilding on the legal and accountability conversation of 2 November\, this event shifts attention towards the people\, places and lived experiences behind environmental harm. Photography becomes an entry point for discussing climate justice in a way that is accessible beyond professional climate and legal communities. \nThe programme has three layers: \nArtist conversation: Behind the images\n– Oyewole and Edwin: Introduction to the photographers\, their work and the communities and environmental challenges documented.\nModerated conversation: From Waste to Systems\n– Connecting visual storytelling with climate justice\, environmental accountability and ethical representation.\nParticipatory element\n– Hands-on activities allow visitors to respond to the work\, contribute their perspectives or explore how visual storytelling can be used for climate engagement and advocacy. \nProgramme: \n16:00 – 16:30 Doors open\, registration and welcome \n16:30 – 17:00 Opening and introduction to artists \n17:00 – 17:30 Conversation/panel \n17:30 – 18:15 Participatory element \n18:15 – 19:00 Networking with drinks and exhibition viewing \nAbout the organisers \nThe Hague Humanity Hub is a not for profit foundation based in The Hague\, the international city of peace and justice and home to hundreds of organisations working towards a better word.

SUMMARY:Community Drinks: Imagining Climate Resilience
DESCRIPTION:What if your next game-changing connection is just a drink away? \nJoin us for a special edition of The Community Drinks in partnership with The Climate Justice Community during The Hague Climate Week to wind down around a glass\, make new connections\, and get inspired by the panel conversation of the evening. For this edition we are leaving our usual home at The Hague Humanity Hub for a new location at EnergieKas\, a rooftop greenhouse that is the perfect setting to get away from your busy schedule and enjoy after-hours with purposeful conversations. \nWhat can you expect? \nJoin the Community Drinks on “Imagining Climate Resilience” from 17:00 to 19:00 for an evening of conversation\, reflection\, and connection around a word that is everywhere in climate work yet rarely means the same thing twice: resilience. \nResilience is used by almost everyone\, but its meaning shifts depending on who is speaking. Does it mean bouncing back to how things were\, or transforming the systems that made people vulnerable in the first place? And crucially: resilience of what\, to what\, and for whom? The way we answer shapes whose needs get prioritised\, who carries the burden of adapting\, and who is held responsible. \nWe will explore questions such as: \nWhat do we actually mean when we talk about climate resilience\, and whose definition counts?\nIs resilience about recovering from shocks\, or about changing the conditions that create vulnerability in the first place?\nAnd finally\, how can organisations make sure local knowledge and lived experience genuinely shape what resilience looks like in practice?\nThrough a panel of spotlight speakers from different corners of the ecosystem and an open discussion\, the evening will create space to exchange experiences\, challenge assumptions\, and think critically about a concept we too often take for granted. \nWho are the speakers? \nThe speakers for this edition will be announced shortly before the event. We are bringing together two complementary perspectives from across the peace and justice ecosystem\, exploring the relationship between voice\, power\, storytelling\, representation\, and visibility. \nRather than approaching the topic from a single discipline\, the conversation will connect experiences from different parts of the ecosystem and invite participants to reflect on how the decisions we make about who we listen to\, whose stories we share\, and what we choose to highlight are shaped and can shape what the international community ultimately understands and acts upon. \nWho is it for? \nIf you are interested in connecting with people and their work towards a more peaceful\, just and sustainable world\, this event is for you. Whatever your role or sector\, join Community Drinks to relax\, exchange perspectives\, and connect with this vibrant community committed to making the world more peaceful\, just and sustainable\, one conversation at a time. \nDate: Thursday\, the 5th of November\nTime: 17:00–19:00\nLocation: EnergieKas\, Helena van Doeverenplantsoen 3\, 2512 ZB Den Haag \nCome meet fellow professionals\, exchange perspectives\, and explore how technology and humanity can evolve together. \nWe look forward to welcoming you. \nPrivacy Policy \nThe Humanity Hub collects your name\, email\, and organization (if you have one) when you sign up for events\, so they can manage the event and tell you about future ones.

SUMMARY:Clue // met bordspellenavond 05.11.2026
DESCRIPTION:Waar voel jij je buitenshuis ook een beetje thuis? In het park\, de bieb\, het café\, de moskee\, op een pleintje in de buurt of misschien wel in het theater? We leven steeds meer langs elkaar heen. Third places zijn die stekkies in de buurt waar iedereen welkom is voor een borrel\, boek of praatje. Met het filmprogramma BinnenSpelen gaan we samen op pad: drie filmavonden\, drie toffe plekken in Den Bosch\, drie iconische films over verbinding\, vervreemding en je eigen plek vinden. Pop-up film op plekken waar je misschien al graag komt\, of die je nu kunt ontdekken. Trek eropuit\, laat je verrassen en ontdek nieuwe plekken én mensen! Ticketprijzen al vanaf €2\,50\, jij bepaalt wat je betaalt. \nDeze editie strijken we neer bij bordspellenwinkel Labyrinth in Den Bosch! \nDit programma is samengesteld door gastprogrammeur Syta Fokkema in samenwerking met Pop Up Cinema en Stichting Quiet als onderdeel van het programma de Cinema Carrousel. \nDe derde van de drie films: Clue \nZes kleurrijke gasten\, één groot landhuis\, en een gastheer die iedereen chanteert – tot hij opeens vermoord wordt. Iedereen aan tafel is verdacht. Samen met zijn loslippige butler moeten de gasten de dader ontmaskeren voor er nog meer slachtoffers vallen.  En net als het bordspel houdt ook deze absurdistische cultkomedie je constant op het verkeerde been. \nVoorafgaand aan Clue draaien we de korte film Gebakken lucht (7 min). \n1985 // 97 min // Jonathan Lynn // komedie\, mysterie \nBlijf hangen voor de bordspellenavond! \nNa de film verruilen we het scherm voor de speeltafel. Sluit aan bij de bordspellenavond in Labyrinth\, kies uit ons spellenaanbod of neem je eigen favoriet mee. Waar Clue draait om achterdocht en verborgen agenda’s\, gaat deze avond juist over het tegenovergestelde: samen aan een tafel zitten\, connectie\, en nieuwe dingen ontdekken. Zonder chantage\, gelukkig.\nPay-what-you-want \nDe toegangsprijzen voor dit evenement zijn pay-what-you-want. We kunnen niet in iemands portemonnee kijken\, en willen iedereen de mogelijkheid bieden om te komen. \nEr zijn drie opties beschikbaar: tickets voor €2\,50\, €7\,50 of €12\,50 per persoon.

SUMMARY:Fiscal Decentralisation and Local Finance Course
DESCRIPTION:Key information \n\nCourse Date: (Face-to-face)26 October – 6 November 2026\nLocation:The Hague\, Netherlands\nFee:€3\,995\n\nIntroduction\nHow a country organises its finances shapes how local authorities govern their cities\, towns\, and villages. Fiscal decentralisation gives local governments greater authority to decide how and where to allocate resources\, enabling them to better respond to citizens’ needs. \nFor decentralisation to succeed\, national governments must establish clear fiscal arrangements to support local service delivery\, while local authorities must strengthen their financial capacities and optimise resource use. \nThis course explores key aspects of fiscal decentralisation\, including expenditure responsibilities\, intergovernmental transfers\, and local revenue sources. Embedded in the broader context of decentralisation\, the training also highlights the importance of political decentralisation. \nThe programme combines theoretical insights with global best practices\, facilitating group discussions and learning from study visits to the Ministry of Interior\, Provincial Government\, and The Hague municipality. Tailored to participants’ needs\, sessions cover topics such as corruption\, participatory budgeting\, local taxation\, and financial accountability principles. \nKey Information\nThis course is designed for professionals working on (fiscal) decentralisation processes\, public sector reform programmes\, public service delivery or public financial management. Participants come from national\, regional and local governments as well as from donor and development organisations. \nParticularly relevant for professionals working in ministries of finance\, municipal budgeting and revenue units\, audit offices\, public financial management departments\, development banks\, and fiscal policy advisory bodies. \n	Apply now

SUMMARY:Book Launch: "Disaster Recovery Through Women’s Eyes" by Dr Kaira Zoe Alburo-Cañete
DESCRIPTION:For too long\, recovery has been measured in terms of infrastructure rebuilt\, economic functions restored and institutions ‘built back better’. Yet recovery is also lived through everyday acts of care\, survival\, resistance and collective action. Much of this work is undertaken by women\, yet it is rarely placed at the centre of how recovery is understood. \nWe will mark the occasion with a panel discussion around the key themes of the book\, including resilience as a lived and entangled process rather than a technocratic framework\, the role of narrative in disaster research and care-based ethical approaches in disaster recovery. \nAs part of the book launch\, we also invite you to tour a photo exhibition\, drawn from a selection used during the research project as part of the ‘PhotoKwento’ methodology\, bringing another dimension to the stories and experiences at the heart of the book. \nThis event is co-organized by ISS and The Hague Humanitarian Studies Centrel (HSC). \nSpeakers \nIntroduction from Prof. Thea Hilhorst\, HSC Director\nPanel moderated by Dr Emma Lyn Cantal\, Leiden University\nAnd including: \nDr Kaira Zoe Alburo-Cañete\, HSC-ISS\nDr Cynthia Bejenol\, ISS \nAfter the panel and gallery walk\, there will be time for drinks and discussion. \n	Sign up here This link opens in a new tab

SUMMARY:Just Peace Movie Night - Climate Justice Week: The Here Now Project
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special edition of Just Peace Movie Night\, taking place as part of The Hague Climate Week\, from 2–8 November 2026. As part of this city-wide programme around climate and sustainability\, we invite you to an evening of film\, reflection and conversation on climate change\, climate justice and meaningful local action. \nExperience climate change through the eyes and cameras of the people living through it. The Here Now Project\, directed by Jon Siskel and Greg Jacobs\, brings together extraordinary first-hand footage of climate extremes from communities around the world. Without narration or traditional interviews\, the film puts lived experience at the centre and confronts audiences with the immediate and interconnected reality of climate change. \nAbout the film – The Here Now Project \nThe Here Now Project tells the story of a year of climate extremes through footage captured by ordinary people experiencing these events themselves. Rather than relying on journalists\, experts or filmmakers to interpret what is happening\, the film places the cameras in the hands of the people living through these events. \nWithout traditional narration or interviews\, the film creates an immediate and personal perspective on climate change\, bringing together experiences from communities around the world. The footage reveals how climate extremes affect people’s everyday lives\, while highlighting the interconnected nature of a global crisis. \nFollowing the screening\, a moderated conversation will explore how we document and tell stories about climate impacts\, whose perspectives are centred\, and the ethical responsibilities involved in using personal footage of people experiencing disaster and loss. \nThe conversation will then turn towards action: how can the urgency and emotions generated by stories like these become meaningful engagement rather than helplessness? Local changemakers and initiatives from The Hague will share concrete examples of what climate action can look like at community level\, connecting the global experiences shown in the film to people and initiatives taking action here. \nConversation themes \nLived experience and storytelling – What changes when climate events are documented by the people experiencing them rather than interpreted by journalists\, experts or filmmakers?\nEthics of documentation – Who owns these images and stories? How should highly personal footage be contextualised\, and what responsibilities arise when people are injured\, displaced or die? How can we avoid turning suffering into spectacle?\nFrom urgency to agency – Stories of climate impacts can leave us feeling overwhelmed\, but they can also inspire action. What meaningful action is possible locally\, and what examples from The Hague show that communities can make a difference? \n  \nProgramme \n18:30 – 19:00 – Doors open / arrival \n19:00 – 19:10 – Welcome and introduction\, including a short introduction by Jon Siskel and Greg Jacobs \n19:10 – 20:30 – Screening: The Here Now Project \n20:30 – 21:00 – Post-screening conversation: lived experience\, storytelling and climate justice \n21:00 – 21:15 – Audience Q&A\, closing reflections and possible call to action \n21:15 – 22:00 – Networking drinks \nTickets: –\nLocation: De Energiekas – Helena van Doeverenplantsoen 3\nDate & Time: 06 November 2026 | 18:30 – 22:00 \nAbout Just Peace Movie Nights \nJust Peace Movie Nights is an event series organised by The Hague Humanity Hub in collaboration with partner organisations from The Hague’s peace and justice ecosystem.
