It is with great pride that I present this second edition of 2025 of our newsletter, showcasing embassy collaboration in agriculture, climate resilience, and trade.
Agricultural highlights include IFTEX 2025 attendance, restoration initiatives in arid lands, and celebrations of the International Day of Potato emphasizing innovation in the value chain.
SNV-led projects such as LISTEN and CRAFT strengthen food security, climate-smart farming, and gender inclusion. The newsletter features stories of Kenyan women countering climate change, advances in potato farming, and climate financing opportunities.
This newsletter also provides practical information on travel to the Netherlands, visa procedures, financial instruments, and agribusiness funding opportunities.
I invite you to explore these stories of partnership and progress, but also the upcoming events and opportunities!
Warm regards,
Henk Jan Bakker
Ambassador
