We believe that first-hand, personal experiences foster tolerance, openness, and inclusivity in diverse societies.

In Touch is a non-profit organization based in the Netherlands, founded in 2018 with the vision of creating spaces for intercultural dialogue and personal connections. Our small but passionate team—five core members and a network of dedicated volunteers—works to bridge differences between sexual, ethnic, and generational communities through meaningful, experiential interactions.
That’s why we work with a wide range of people, including:
✦ Youth and adults, particularly those from marginalized communities.
✦ Professionals such as teachers, youth educators, counselors, social workers, and mental health specialists.
✦ International organizations and local partners, co-developing social integration programs and innovative learning methods.

Our Approach
At In Touch, we focus on social and emotional learning, intercultural dialogues, gender and sexuality education, and most importantly community building. We use non-formal education methods and art-based methodologies to help individuals and professionals develop emotional awareness, reflective communication, and cultural sensitivity.
Some of our key approaches include:
✦ Art as a learning tool – We integrate artistic expression into educational methods, designing training programs and workshops on topics such as sexual health, relationships, and cultural identity.
✦ International collaboration – We participate in global training projects, exchanging knowledge and best practices from multicultural experiences.
✦ Gardening for community-building – We use gardening as a tool for healing, social connection, and intercultural dialogue. By engaging in shared physical spaces, individuals reconnect with themselves, others, and their environment.
A Multicultural & Inclusive Vision
Operating in a multicultural and multi-ethnic context, In Touch actively collaborates with diverse communities across Europe. Although our team is small, we are deeply committed to gender balance, inclusivity, and intersectionality in all our projects. Our training programs address gender-sensitive education, social equity, and intergenerational dialogue—always with a focus on real-world impact.

Through our personal, community-driven approach, we continue to build bridges between communities, creating opportunities for authentic human connections.
As our portfolio of European projects grows, we remain dedicated to fostering deep intercultural understanding and meaningful social change.
