Hello%20Leiden%20logo%20meta_680.jpg

Proud to present a new format designed to give internationals in the Netherlands a voice - for this pilot in the city of Leiden.

On May 8th the first episode was aired on Sleutelstad TV, the local broadcaster of Leiden. This English spoken show intends to share stories of foreign nationals living and working in Leiden to connect, to communicate and break stereotypes. If it becomes successful, we'll try to launch it in other cities as well.

It was not easy to get the first show ready on time, but we managed thanks to perseverant team work. The editorial team consists of journalistic talents from a.o. Azerbaijan, Pakistan and Syria while I'm executive director.

For the next 13 weeks you can watch it in and around Leiden on TV and on several social media. This project is supported by the Leids Mediafonds. If you are interested to know more about this project, please mail helloleiden@sleutelstad.nl.
