In the coming decades, the Netherlands will face major societal challenges, ranging from climate change to an ageing population, AI, and security issues. How can we shape these transitions in a social, sustainable, and fair way, and what role do students play? Curious to hear how politicians respond to these challenges? Join us and witness how politicians debate under the watchful eyes of students and experts.
