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:Film screening and discussion: Earth’s Greatest Enemy
DESCRIPTION:9 November 2026\, 17:15-20:30 \nLeiden University\, Wijnhaven 2.01 \nTrufmarkt 99\, The Hague \nFree entrance\, no registration \n  \nThe climate crisis is increasingly being framed as a security matter\, a factor that fuels conflicts and necessitates military expansion. But what are the consequences of militarization for the environment and the climate crisis itself? \n“Earth’s Greatest Enemy” (2025) addresses a blind spot in mainstream environmental awareness by highlighting the scale of ecological destruction and human suffering caused by militarism. With its devastating account of the U.S. military’s contribution to climate collapse\, ecocide\, and the poisoning of the planet\, this thought-provoking film urges us to view militarized ecologies as a structural feature of the American empire and capitalist exploitation. At a time of increasing militarization in Europe and around the world\, the film also exposes the lack of accountability for crimes of ecocide. \nDirector Abby Martin is a journalist and activist from the United States. She is co-director of the documentary “99%: The Occupy Wall Street Collaborative Film” (2013) and director of the documentary “Gaza Fights for Freedom” (2019). \nExtended trailer here.

SUMMARY:Who Pays the Price? Regional perspectives
DESCRIPTION:This event is part 2 of a 3-part Studium Generale program series organised between Leiden University and the Humanity Hub. On three Wednesday evenings we bring together academics and practitioners\, and delve into the world of critical raw materials. \nWhat are the global effects of the extraction of critical raw materials on regions world wide? \nIn this second session in the series on critical raw materials\, we look at how the run on critical raw materials affects regional and local communities. Together with Jeleel Balyaminu\, MSc and Dr. Soledad Valdivia Rivera we draw parallels between Latin-America and Africa. We explore what the global demand for critical raw materials means for communities and how it creates new geopolitical power structures. What is the role China plays? And how do we look at possible human right violations involved. \nJeleel Balyaminu is currently doing a PhD at the African Studies Centre Leiden. His research is on Natural Resource Governance and Socio-Cultural Conditions in Africa: From Policy to Practice. \nSoledad Valivia Rivera is Assistant Professor at the Institute for History at the Department of Latin America Studies. She focusses among others on the state and social movement relations in Bolivia. \nAfterwards there is time for drinks and a networking reception. \nMore speakers will be announced soon. \n🗓 Wednesday 11 November\n🕠17:30 – 19:00\n📍The Humanity Hub\, Fluwelen Burgwal 58\, Den Haag \nAttendence is free\, but please sign-up in advance. \n	Register  This link opens in a new tab

SUMMARY:Cultuurhaven: (ID)Entity: Exploration of the self (and selves) by Omnisfera
DESCRIPTION:Who are we beyond the labels we are given? \nBringing together different artistic disciplines and perspectives\, we invite artists and audiences to reflect on belonging\, identity\, migration\, memory and the many selves we carry. \nWhat makes you who you are? Is it where you come from\, the culture you grew up in\, the people you meet\, or the places that feel like home? \nWe invite you to pause\, reflect\, exchange ideas and connect with experiences that may be different from or similar to your own\, in an evening of multidisciplinary contemporary art exploring identity and the experiences that shape us. There will also be opportunities to participate and engage with the artists and their artwork! \nExplore identity\, belonging and the many selves we carry through art.\nWhether you’ve spent your life in one place\, grown up between cultures\, moved across borders or are still figuring out where you belong\, there’s space for you in this conversation. \nDiscover works and perspectives from young emerging artists\, including music performances\, a documentary film screening\, paintings\, and art installation that explore questions around identity\, culture\, belonging\, and home. \nMeet people and experience contemporary arts in an open\, accessible setting. Take part in a shared space for reflection\, conversation\, and creative exchange. You’re welcome to have a conversation with the artists too! No art or music background is needed\, just curiosity and an open mind. \nOmnisfera Collective is a multidisciplinary arts collective based in The Hague\, bringing together young artists to explore social issues through art.From the artist\, by the artist\, for everyone. We create spaces where artists and audiences can come together\, exchange perspectives\, reflect on shared experiences and discover new ways oflooking at the world. We believe contemporary art should be accessible to everyone\, not just those already familiar with the art scene. \nThis time\, we bring up the topic of identity. Inspired by Amin Maalouf’s book In the Name of Identity\, we explore identity as something complex\, personal and constantly evolving. We believe that our identity is shaped by many things: where we come from\, the time we live in\, the people around us\, our memories\, our culture and the places we call home. But what happens when these things don’t fit neatly into one box? \nSee you there! \nCultuurhaven is a platform of West Den Haag\, aimed at promoting the connection between creators in the city.x \n	Sign up here This link opens in a new tab
