Political leaders to debate at the University of Twente

IN THE WEEKS AHEAD OF THE DUTCH NATIONAL ELECTIONS, THE POLITICAL LEADERS OF ALL POLITICAL PARTIES WILL VISIT THE UNIVERSITY OF TWENTE.

Together with regional newspaper De Twentsche Courant Tubantia, the UT organizes a series of debates with the top candidates of fourteen parties. Eleven political leaders have already confirmed their presence between 27 February and 13 March 2017.

FROM TOWER TO TOWER

‘From Tower to Tower’ (Van Torentje naar Torentje, in Dutch) is the name of the debate series, referring to the Tower in which the Dutch Prime Minister has his office and the little Tower at the campus of the University of Twente, designed by Wim T. Schippers, in the pond in front of De Vrijhof.

From 27 February until 13 March 2017, a programme will be held at the Amphitheater in De Vrijhof daily, where guests will have the opportunity to attend the meetings and interviews. There is the possibility to ask your question and masterclasses in politics will be held prior to the interviews. The event is organized in close collaboration with Studium Generale.
