NL Embassy for India, Nepal and Bhutan🇮🇳🇳🇵🇧🇹 @NLinIndia
Delegates from the Netherlands were pleased to take part in the Arise Cities Forum 2026.

Sara Cohen, Head of Economic Affairs, spoke in the session “Global Ambition, Multilevel Action: The Urban Climate Resolve”, where she highlighted the importance of commitment to climate resilient, inclusive and sustainable cities worldwide. She emphasised that in order to turn ambition into action we require stronger multilateral governance, measurable results and coalitions to ensure solutions are fit for purpose.

Maurits Bosman, Delegated Water Representative, participated in the session “Decoding Climate Action in Urban Ecosystems”, where best practice was exchanged on how cities and states can move beyond climate action planning towards sustained implementation and institutionalisation, where he provided practical, systems-based urban climate solutions from the Netherlands.

What does the chip in your phone have to do with India and the Netherlands? Quite a lot, as it turns out.

From the devices we use every day to the technologies shaping our future, semiconductors are behind more than we realise.

And behind these tiny chips is a much bigger story of collaboration.

Introducing The Indo-Dutch Way, a new series exploring how the India–Netherlands Strategic Partnership is taking shape in the world around us. Our first chapter takes us to SEMICON India, where Dutch expertise and Indian strengths are coming together to advance the next generation of technology.

And semiconductors are only the beginning.

Chapter two is coming soon! Follow #TheIndoDutchWay to discover what comes next.

How do we look at heritage, including young heritage? What policies shape its conservation and reuse, and how can we learn from each other across contexts? Jugaadopolis, @RCE_erfgoed and @ReinwardtAcad have been working on a collaborative research project, “Reimagine, Retrofit, Reuse: An Indo-Dutch Perspective,” exploring adaptive reuse practices and approaches to historic buildings across both countries. As part of the project, experts from RCE visited India to learn more about how the city works and to exchange perspectives on heritage, urban change, and the possibilities of adaptive reuse. Many thanks to the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs for facilitating the visits and making this exchange possible!

India is home to 120 million adolescent girls. Ensuring they can turn their potential into opportunity is essential for securing gender equality and sustaining India’s economic growth.

On the occasion of the International Day of the Girl Child, the Residence of the Netherlands hosted the 8th UNICEF and Nordic+ Embassies Breakfast Series. UNICEF India Country Director Cynthia McCaffrey set the scene, while Mary Thomas, Gender and Development Specialist at UNICEF India, moderated the discussion, bringing together embassies, businesses and partners to explore how girls can move from education to work and economic independence.

Together with NXP India’s Kankana Karkun and Women on Wings’ Shikha Bansal, participants explored how to bridge the gap between education and employment, from equipping young women with skills for careers in technology to helping women-led businesses grow. 

Ambassador @marisagerards highlighted that investing in girls means investing in our economy. Every girl has potential; what she needs is good education, skills and opportunities for internships and jobs. Safety at and on the way to school, as well as support from family and community, is crucial. Let’s give our girls the freedom to make their own choices and shape their own future.
