The Talent for Good Forum is organised by The Hague Humanity Hub in partnership with The Hague University of Applied Sciences, and with the support of the major universities and higher education institutions in The Hague.

Whether you are looking for inspiration, exploring internship and volunteer opportunities, or considering a professional leap, this is where you discover organisations, build your network, and explore career pathways. 11:00-12:00 - Skills Workshops Sharpen your skillset through a series of interactive, hands-on workshops facilitated by leading NGOs, IGOs, and professionals. Whether you're developing negotiation skills, learning about fundraising careers, or practising networking techniques, these sessions are designed to help you stand out in an impact-driven field. Afternoon Programme 13:00-13:45 - Keynotes Join the conversation on our 2026 theme: “Shaping Trust in the Future.” Hear insights from HRH Princess Laurentien van Oranje and Emma Wedner, Chairperson Council of Europe Advisory Council on Youth, on how can you help rebuild trust in communities, institutions, movements, and more, as you kickstart your impact-driven career in an era of misinformation and global instability. 14:00-15:30 - Breakout Sessions Join one of 15 interactive breakout sessions and explore what rebuilding trust in the future could mean in practice.
