NATO and the Netherlands: A Journey
Talking about peace and security together
In the run-up to the NATO Summit on 24 and 25 June 2025, the exhibition ‘NATO and the Netherlands: A Journey’ will be visiting cities across the country, including The Hague, Groningen, Nijmegen, Eindhoven, Utrecht, Maastricht and Alkmaar.
The goal of the exhibition is to engage people in conversation about national and international security. Peace and security concern us all. And they cannot be taken for granted.
The travelling exhibition is being organised by the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Defence, in partnership with the Netherlands Atlantic Association, the Clingendael Institute, The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies (HCSS) and other organisations.

- Serious gaming: an e-sports tournament organised by the Ministry of Defence
- Debates and research: inspiring sessions organised by the Clingendael Institute and HCSS
Contributors: Haagsch College, Young Atlantic Association, the Children’s Correspondent, De Kiesmannen, Ministry of Defence (e-sports, Veterans in the classroom), higher education institutions and participating municipalities.
