Community Events





You can attend the Rooted community events either as a continuation of your rooting journey beyond participating in the weekend, or as a newcomer wanting to get a taste of what Rooted has to offer. Some of our events are organized by Rooted and are facilitated by a coach, focusing on specific dimensions of rootedness. Others are community-led events, initiated by community members wanting to share part of their culture, identity, or something they feel passionate about.*

Rooted Festival

calendar-day
Organized by Rooted, UN Refugee Agency UNHCR and De Hoorneboeg, this one-day festival invites you to join, share (your) stories and be inspired by others as we collectively explore themes as migration, identity and belonging. Rooted Festival is for people with ánd without a migration background. It is a place to together build a collective home […]

*Please note that some of our events, which may require more of a safe space, are only open to those who have already participated in a Rooted weekend. Others are open to the public. We will indicate whether an event is open or closed in the description and include a “how to sign up” for open events. For closed events, our community members will receive a separate email and WhatsApp message on how to sign up.

Community highlights

A community driven from within

The strength of the Rooted community lies in the creativity and contributions of its members. Everyone is invited to organize community-led events, from shared meals and cultural evenings to nature walks and museum visits. These gatherings arise for many reasons: to share one’s culture, to explore The Netherlands together, or simply to connect more deeply.
What they all have in common is a shared purpose: to build meaningful relationships and strengthen our sense of belonging.

Our community events are guided by our manifesto, a living document that all community members are invited to contribute to as we build our shared practice of belonging.
