All over the world, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) people face discrimination and violence. But everyone should be able and free to be themselves, no matter who they are and who they love. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Good news for Eurovision lovers: the Dutch organizers of the 2020 🇪🇺 Eurovision Song Contest🎤, which had to be cancelled due to the corona-crisis, are producing an alternative TV show ‘Eurovision: Europe Shine a Light✨’ that will be broadcast Saturday 16 May at 22:00 Finnish time, live from the Netherlands.
The 🇪🇺 Eurovision Song Contest🎤, once created to bring countries together in post war Europe, amplifies the power of music, in the spirit of unity and openness. All 41 artists that were due to appear in Rotterdam will perform their own song. They, and well-known participants of past editions, will sing unforgettable songs from the Contest’s 65 years history. Due to the unusual circumstances, all artists will perform from their own countries.
Needless to say, the show will devote attention to the victims of the corona virus and to the frontliners working so tirelessly to deal with the crisis. We live in special times. Let’s celebrate that we live in freedom🏳️🌈🕊!
The show will be in 🇬🇧English and will last approximately two hours. Public service broadcasters from over 40 countries, including Yle, will broadcast the show.
Fans can also watch via the official 🇪🇺 Eurovision Song Contest🎤 YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/eurovision

🇪🇺 9 mei is #Europadag 9th May is #Europeday
Europa is een veilig thuis waar we al 75 jaar in vrede samenleven. In deze tijd plaatst de coronacrisis ons voor nieuwe uitdagingen. Wij staan voor de lastige opgave de crisis effectief aan te pakken en voort te bouwen op de successen van Europese samenwerking.
Geen van de lidstaten van de Europese Unie kan dit alleen. Solidariteit vraagt dan ook om inspanning van alle lidstaten. Nederland blijft solidair en blijft inzetten op de route die de EU veel goeds heeft gebracht. Het is daarbij belangrijk dat we kiezen voor praktische stappen vooruit, op die onderwerpen waar we samen een stevige vuist kunnen maken.

Bericht van de Nederlandse school in Finland (Espoo):
VACATURE: LEERKRACHTEN & ASSISTENTEN (ONDER- & BOVENBOUW)
De Stichting Nederlandse Taal en Cultuur in Finland is één van de grootste NTC (Nederlandse Taal en Cultuur)-scholen ter wereld. Onze school is aangesloten bij Stichting Nederlands Onderwijs in het Buitenland (NOB) en ontvangt jaarlijks subsidie vanuit Nederland. Er wordt Nederlands taal- en cultuuronderwijs gegeven aan ruim honderddertig kinderen in de leeftijd van 3 tot 14 jaar. De lessen vinden plaats in Westend (Espoo) op zaterdagochtend van 10:15 uur tot 13:45 uur, ongeveer om de week, met als afsluiter een vierdaags zomerkamp in juni.
Hoewel het overgrote deel van onze leerlingen een Nederlandse achtergrond heeft, zijn ook Vlaamse leerlingen, leerkrachten en assistenten natuurlijk van harte welkom.
Voor het aankomende schooljaar 2020-2021 (aanvang 22.8) zijn wij op zoek naar meerdere leerkrachten en assistenten voor zowel de onder- als de bovenbouw.
Als leerkracht ben je verantwoordelijk voor het:
• Voorbereiden van de lessen en verzorgen van de lessen
• Bijhouden van het leerlingvolgsysteem (ParnasSys), voorbereiden en organiseren van toetsen (CITO), opstellen van jaarlijkse rapporten en het voeren van oudergesprekken;
• Schrijven van lesplannen, evaluaties en handelingsplannen;
Wij zijn op zoek naar enthousiaste leerkrachten die onze leerlingen op een positieve manier stimuleren om het Nederlands verder te blijven ontwikkelen. Een pabo-diploma (of vergelijkend) is een voordeel, maar de school staat ook open voor medewerkers met een andere opleidings- en werkachtergrond.
Komend schooljaar zal ons onderwijsteam worden ondersteund door 2 ervaren gediplomeerde onderwijscoördinatoren en een toegewijd bestuur.
Als assistent ondersteun je een vaste leerkracht waar nodig, tijdens de lesdagen. Een behulpzame en pro-actieve houding en affiniteit met de doelgroep worden zeer op prijs gesteld.
Overigens zijn zowel de functie van leerkracht als die van assistent betaalde functies.
Momenteel krijgen onze leerlingen van onze school les op afstand. Hiervoor hebben we onlangs Google Classroom in gebruik genomen. De school gaat hier graag mee verder, ook als we weer teruggaan op regulier onderwijs.
Lijkt het je leuk om jonge kinderen te enthousiasmeren voor de Nederlandse taal, schroom dan niet om contact op te nemen. Stuur zo snel mogelijk je CV met een begeleidend mailtje naar [email protected].
🍽 Corona proof greenhouse restaurant in Amsterdam made it to the (Finnish) news!
How to be creative in the times of Corona; a Dutch restaurant has an innovative idea to bring normality back to life, but at the same time keep the safety: small glass cabins built for two or three people, waiters wearing gloves and transparent face shields, long boards to bring dishes into the glass cabins to ensure minimal physical contact with customers.
The project is called ‘Serres Séparées’ (Separate Greenhouses).

Vandaag is het Bevrijdingsdag! Vanuit huis staat Nederland stil bij #75jaarvrijheid. Op 31 augustus 2019 gaf de Koning het startsein voor dit bijzondere herdenkingsjaar, waarin we vieren en herdenken dat we sinds het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog in vrijheid leven.
Door heel het land wordt vandaag de vlag gehesen. Traditiegetrouw is vanavond om 20.30 uur op NPO1 het 5 mei-concert te zien. Ditmaal niet vanaf de Amstel, maar vanuit Carré, zonder publiek. Want 5 mei vieren we dit jaar thuis!

🇧🇶 Today, May 5, it has been 75 years since the Netherlands was liberated. We reflect upon the fact that we have lived in freedom since 1945, the end of the Second World War. The fact that freedom is something vulnerable is important to realize regularly. The liberation meant a restoration of the Dutch free and open democratic constitutional state.
75 years ago, the United Nations was founded and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted to prevent future horrors such as those committed during the Second World War. Together, we carry the responsibility of passing on the importance of freedom to future generations.🕊️

Today, May 4, it is Remembrance Day.
During the national commemoration of Remembrance Day we remember all – civilians and soldiers – who have been killed or murdered in the Kingdom of the Netherlands or anywhere else in the world in war situations or during peacekeeping operations since the outbreak of the Second World War.
At 8pm Dutch time, the Netherlands observes 2 minutes silence to commemorate the victims of war.

Today, on World Press Freedom Day we ask…
📊 How can we debunk the rumours and support communities with access to facts?
📉 How can we combat the ‘infodemic’ of misinformation and disinformation?
🌍 What are the prospects for global solidarity as the pandemic highlights the divisions?
On 3 May we celebrate press freedom📰 and access to information🌐, and discuss the challenges facing all independent media. Join HagueTalks on Zoom for this special online event on World Press Freedom Day, where it will be discussed what the pandemic means for all of us and the future of freedom of expression.
Both the media and citizens can play vital roles in countering the spread of misinformation in our new world of lockdown and social distancing. At the same time, Covid-19 has amplified global inequality, and is heightening the threat to freely reported and reliable information, according to the 2020 World Press Freedom Index.
This event is co-organised by The Hague Project Peace and Justice and RNW media.
This event starts at 17:00 Finnish time

🎉 The embassy team wishes you a nice Vappu! 🎈
On May 1st the embassy will be closed.
#stayhome #virtuaalivappu
🎈 Vappu is an important festivity for Finns and it has not been cancelled this year either. See some tips on how to spend 1st of May safely and in a fun way! You can also share your vappu-celebrations by using #virtuaalivappu. 🎊
Vappua saa juhlistaa, mutta kokoontumisia on vältettävä.
Viranomaiset kannustavat ihmisiä viettämään vapun tänä vuonna läheisten kanssa kotona tai omalla pihalla. Yli 10 hengen kokoontumisrajoitukset ovat edelleen voimassa. Perinteisille vappukokoontumispaikoille ei pidä tänä vuonna mennä, sillä useista ryhmistä muodostuu äkkiä isoja satojen henkilöiden joukkoja.
Virtuaalivappu.fi kerää yhteen verkon viihdyttävimmät vapputapahtumat.

Det är tillåtet att fira valborg, men sammankomster måste undvikas.
Myndigheterna uppmuntrar människor att i år fira första maj tillsammans med sina närstående hemma eller på egen gård. De begränsningar som gäller sammankomster med över 10 personer gäller fortfarande. I år ska man inte gå till de platser där man traditionellt träffas på valborg, eftersom flera små grupper plötsligt bildar stora folksamlingar med hundratals personer.
Virtuaalivappu.fi samlar de mest underhållande valborgsevenemangen på webben.

Celebrating vappu while avoiding physical gatherings.
This year, the authorities are encouraging people to spend vappu with their families at home, in their yards or nearby. The restrictions on gatherings of more than 10 people are still in force. This year, people should not gather at traditional vappu meeting places, as many small groups can quickly grow into larger groups with hundreds of people.
Virtuaalivappu.fi is putting together the most entertaining vappu events on the web.

💡 The COVID-19 pandemic causes a lot of challenges and uncertainty. At the same time new inventions and solutions are being developed to combat the challenges.
This is a great example! A ‘visit container’ so that people in elderly homes can get a -safe- visit from their loved ones. Invented in the Netherlands and now being realized in Finland too. 💪

Er zijn verschillende redenen waardoor je je Nederlanderschap kunt verliezen, maar het meest voorkomend is dat je vrijwillig een andere nationaliteit aanneemt. Niet alle Nederlanders informeren zich voldoende over de gevolgen en ontdekken te laat dat zij onbedoeld geen Nederlander meer zijn. Bijvoorbeeld wanneer zij in het buitenland hun paspoort willen vernieuwen of weer in Nederland willen gaan wonen. Er zijn enkele uitzonderingen waardoor het mogelijk is om twee nationaliteiten te hebben. Meer informatie: www.rijksoverheid.nl/nationaliteit-verliezen
Visit to Sámiland, Lapland (part 2). Deputy Ambassador Özlem Canel and Research Officer Merijn van Bruggen were in Lapland this week. They learned a lot about the Sámi people and their culture.

Exhibition ’Elemental’ of Studio DRIFT is now open and runs until May 19. Make sure you go and see it in real and visit Amos Rex! Comprising film, sculpture and installations, the exhibition explores the basic premise from which all living beings operate: single entities attaching themselves to larger contexts. Studio Drift, founded in 2007 by Lonneke Gordijn and Ralph Nauta, works across a range of media, navigating the boundaries of art and technology with great ease. In recent years, their cross-disciplinary art practice has moved increasingly towards large-scale installations that translate complex natural processes into visual poetry More about the exhibition @ Amos Rex website: https://bit.ly/2ITww6P

Have you heard about the ambitious plans for building a tunnel between Helsinki and Tallinn? And an artificial island in front of Helsinki? We invited Peter Vasterbacka to our office to hear more about the project and the opportunities for Dutch companies. ”Why do we need a tunnel between Helsinki & Tallinn?” Listen to the video where Peter explains the reasons. How to create new land? How to reclaim land from the sea? Several Dutch companies would definitely be able to answer these questions.
