A message from our director
I’m Laurence Peelen and I am the new intern at the NVIC. I just finished my BA Islam Studies at the Radboud University Nijmegen and I wanted to gain some more experience in the MENA region at the start of my Master’s program.
For the second time in a row the NVIC Library is organizing a book fair for a good cause! The proceeds of this edition will go to Qalb Kabeer NGO, an organisation that is running a literacy and arts activities program for children living on Dahab Island.
NVIC would like to invite you to Tilly Mulder's second exhibition. This time around a new series of paintings, names 'Mindscapes', will be on show.
Coming semester Karen Vet will be joining our team as the new intern. She has a BA in Middle Eastern Studies from Leiden University, specializing in Arabic language and culture.
