SUMMARY:The Handshake with Mette Gonggrijp
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special edition of The Handshake\, our interactive event series connecting aspiring changemakers with experienced professionals in the peace & justice and “for good” sectors. This edition is presented in partnership with the Move 4 Human Rights Summer Edition. A limited number of seats have been opened up for the public—register soon to secure your spot! \nWe are thrilled to welcome Mette Gonggrijp\, former Dutch Ambassador\, certified leadership coach\, and founder of IMind2Lead\, to share her personal and professional journey. \nWhether you’re a student\, a young professional\, or considering a career shift\, this is your opportunity to: \n\nHear Mette’s inspiring story of diplomacy\, resilience\, and reinvention\nExplore careers in international relations\, leadership\, mental health\, and social entrepreneurship\nAsk your burning questions in an open Q&A\nConnect with like-minded peers and professionals\n\n“My journey has taught me that as leaders we can achieve more meaningful impact in the world by staying whole\, open and healthy” – Mette Gonggrijp \nIntroducing Mette\nMette Gonggrijp has been a Dutch diplomat and ambassador for over two decades. She served at the Dutch Embassies in Zimbabwe and Costa Rica (including Honduras\, El Salvador\, Guatemala and Nicaragua). She has been posted at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in The Hague as Director Sub-Sahara Africa and Ambassador Women’s Rights and Gender Equality. \nHer grandfathers’ resistance activities during WOII and his subsequent experiences as Prisoner of War have motivated Mette throughout her educational and professional career. She chose to focus her Master European Public Administration on international relations and international law. Internships at the Stockholm Peace Research Institute\, Asser Institute for International Law and the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) led her to apply for the diplomatic training course in 1998. \nHer commitment to human rights and human dignity for all inspired her to consistently seek positions at Dutch MFA in the field of governance\, human rights\, social justice and international cooperation. When Mette resigned from MFA in 2022\, she had been working zealously in leadership positions for over 10 years. Known for being a ‘modern leader’ within the diplomatic service\, her leadership style had been characterised by a drive to foster thriving teams that realise true differences for others in the world. \nMette’s resignation from MFA followed the manifestation of unacknowledged complex (intergenerational) trauma. Drawing from her personal healing journey and her diplomatic career\, she founded the social enterprise IMind2Lead in 2022. Her recent education in coaching\, trauma\, mental health and well-being at Standford and NICABM have deepened her understanding and commitment. Mette’s belief is that the current uncertain\, polarised and complex world needs a different kind of leadership. Leadership that is being practised from a healthy\, open and conscious mind/body/heart congruence. With IMind2Lead through coaching and community she has been passionately guiding ngo\, public\, diplomatic and corporate mission-driven leaders towards ‘whole leadership’ for change. \nWhat is The Handshake?\nA career inspiration series spotlighting leading voices in peace the justice ecosystem. Through honest conversations and personal stories\, The Handshake offers an inside look at real career journeys\, beyond titles and job descriptions. \nParticipants can engage directly\, asking their pressing questions about career journeys\, field developments\, and the key skills needed for future professionals. For those who find the peace and justice sector daunting or do not know where to begin\, these conversations provide practical insights and help set realistic expectations for entering the field. \nRead about previous editions of The Handshake here \n	Register Here This link opens in a new tab

There will be moderated conversation\, time for Q&As from the audience and networking. \n\n\n\n\n“To make a difference in the world you have to have a way to apply your vision in concrete ways\, you need to keep showing up and be a persistent risk taker\, but also a calculating risk taker.” \n\n\n\n\nIntroducing John: \n\n\n\nJohn Marks is the author of From Vision to Action: Remaking the World Through Social Entrepreneurship. Until 2014\, he was President of Search for Common Ground\, a non-profit organization he founded in 1982 and built with his wife Susan Collin Marks into the world’s largest peacebuilding NGO with 600 staff members and offices in 36 countries. He also founded Common Ground Productions. In 2018\, his work was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. He is a best-selling\, award-winning author\, a former US Foreign Service Officer\, a Skoll Awardee in Social Entrepreneurship\, and an Ashoka Senior Fellow. He was a Fellow at Harvard’s Institute of Politics and a Visiting Scholar at Harvard Law School. The UN’s University of Peace awarded him an honorary PhD. \n\n\n\nJohn is joining the Handshake to share insights from his career and how to navigate challenges in the non-profit peace and justice and entrepreneurship sectors and shed light on how to get started especially during these trying times. \n\n\n\nAs after ten years living in Amsterdam\, John and his wife Susan will be moving back to Washington\, DC in April\, this is likely one of your last chances to meet and hear from him first hand. Don’t miss out on this opportunity! \n\n\n\nDuring this unique session at InHolland we will also be joined by Philippa Collin who will share opportunities and approaches to how you can start today in developing individual skills for addressing societal transitions and sustainability challenges\, just as John has dedicated his life to doing. Many of us can feel overwhelmed by the magnitude of such challenges and don’t know where to start taking action. That is why The Expertise Network for Systemic Co-Design (ESC) is proud to present the Inner Development Goals ESC-IDG Hub\, which emphasizes how personal growth contributes to achieving a sustainable society. Join this event to discover how the IDGs and the ESG-IDG Hub can support you in building a meaningful and purpose-driven career. \n\n\n\nPractical information: \n\n\n\nWhen: March 6th\, 16.00-18.00 \n\n\n\nWhere: Inholland University of Applied Science Den Haag \n\n\n\nCosts: Free of charge

SUMMARY:The Hague Peace & Justice Talent Hub presents- The Handshake with: Kirsten Milden (UNOCHA)
DESCRIPTION:Navigating your career in the world of peace & justice can be tough: with so many potential options\, causes\, and routes into the sector. Sometimes it can even be difficult to think where to begin- do I need to do several internships? Does everyone need to go into ‘programme management’? And why does every UN job require a 24-page application form? \n\n\n\nThat’s why The Hague Peace & Justice Talent Hub is launching ‘The Handshake’: an event series where we invite senior figures from the world of peace & justice to join in conversation and reveal how they’ve ended up where they are! You’ll have the chance to ask questions\, get insights\, and be inspired. The first event will feature Kirsten Mildren from UN OCHA.  \n\n\n\nAbout Kirsten: \n\n\n\nKirsten Mildren is the Chief of Public Advocacy and Campaigns for the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UN OCHA). She leads communication efforts around the world to provide support for the 230 million people who need humanitarian assistance\, mostly through global advocacy campaigns. \n\n\n\nUN OCHA has a unique mandate to speak out on behalf of the people worst affected by humanitarian situations. It’s the humanitarian arm of the UN responsible for coordinating the international humanitarian response to save more lives. \n\n\n\nGrinding conflict\, the deadly climate crisis and health epidemics\, are causing record levels of hunger and displacement\, worsened poverty\, and has put equality for women and girls increasingly out of reach. As a result\, one out of every 23 people now needs humanitarian assistance. \n\n\n\nIt’s her job to keep world attention focused on humanitarian issues. \n\n\n\nKirsten is passionate about storytelling and innovative digital content. Many of her campaigns for World Humanitarian Day have won awards such as Impossible Choices\, The Human Race and Share Humanity – https://about.worldhumanitarianday.org/past-campaigns/ \n\n\n\nKirsten has just celebrated 20 years with OCHA where she has worked in Addis Ababa\, Geneva\, Bangkok and New York and has deployed to dozens of emergencies all over the world including most recently for the Syria and Turkey earthquake. \n\n\n\nBefore joining the UN\, she worked as a television journalist for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation\, which she joined as a cadet after graduating from law and journalism in Australia. \n\n\n\n**Please note that this event is geared towards students and young professionals  \n\n\n\n\nSign up here
