About this event

On May 7th, Association Montium will host its inaugural symposium themed "2500 Years of Kurdistan" in Culture Centre Parnassos in Utrecht, detailing the history, present and future of the Kurdish region. The programme opens with a keynote speech on the history of the Kurdish people, followed by film, and three break-out sessions: Gender & Women's Rights, Entrepreneurship & Economic Development, and Culture & Dance. The day concludes with an interactive debate on the future of the Kurdish region with youth representatives from Dutch political parties. A catered lunch introduces guests to the flavors of Kurdistan. A whole-day symposium meant to leave you satisfied both intellectually and mentally, yet inspire you to crave for more.
