All the celebrations will take place in Leiden: an international
conference (April), a play in Swahili (September), a film festival
(October), special art exhibitions throughout the year and lots more. We
will also be bringing out a catalogue of the publications we released in
the last five years.
The Netherlands African Business Council is also 65 years old this year
and we will be publishing a book to mark our joint anniversary later in
2012. We will also be holding a conference together in November in
collaboration with Dutch-based companies that do business with Africa.
A full programme of all the events we are organizing for 2012 will be
announced very soon.
