Together with Het Nieuwe Instituut, Shay Kreuger ensures that discussions transform into open conversations and prejudices give way to curiosity. With a wide range of guests and public participation, this programme aims to put current issues under the magnifying glass.

There's room for everyone who would like to share their opinion, so make sure you join the conversation and take a seat at the (digital) table.
