Rooted

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.*

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.

In community members’ words

The Rooted Community still plays quite a big role in my life. I’ve made some strong connections and staying in touch with them helps in feeling more rooted and enhances the feeling of belonging. It’s amazing to see how we embrace each other and can even rely on each other during tough times. There’s so much love and care.

I feel inspired to create spaces where people can connect, feel supported and explore their own sense of belonging. This experience reminded me that rootedness is essential not just personally, but as a foundation for stronger, more compassionate communities.

The Rooted Community has been one of my biggest wins in the past year. Through it, I built real and meaningful connections. I’m still in contact with many of the participants, and some of them have even become close friends. We talk almost daily sometimes, or at least every week, and that really means a lot to me. For me, the Rooted Community is more than just a group, it’s something that brought connection, support, and friendship when I needed it most.
