Meet women candidates in the upcoming local elections for a conversation on successful careers and Eindhoven’s future.
 Did you know that the municipal elections are on March 18? Many internationals are eligible to vote, too!
On March 12, top women leaders from CDA, GroenLinks, D66, VVD, Volt Eindhoven, Partij voor de Dieren, and Eindhoven Voor Elkaar come together to share their vision for an inclusive ecosystem. Join this essential English-language discussion to learn how they are driving change in the Netherlands. Once elected, these politicians will make decisions that affect the international community, including the economy, internationalization, housing, mobility, public space, sustainability, community services, and more, but the local political system can be difficult to navigate for internationals.
