This year, FISO is hosting the first FISO DAY ever, and literally everyone is invited! A fun afternoon and evening with workshops, dinner, and a pub quiz – organized especially for members of FISO, but open to everyone!
FISO is the umbrella for internationalisation, inclusivity and wellbeing associations. TINT and Lighthouse are part of this umbrella.
Together with Lighthouse, TINT organizes The Conversation Game as part of FISO DAY; a game that makes room to talk about what is on your mind. Join us to have conversations about social life, identity, and dreams. We know these can be difficult topics to talk about so we made a nice boardgame to make it easier :) We provide the structure for the evening, and you can pick your preferred discussion topics!

In this workshop, TINT’s life coach Marja Ernst-Houben will guide you through tips and exercises.

What does it mean to start over, to build a life in a new country, and to turn hardship into strength? The Story of Abubakarr is a moving theatrical performance that tells the true story of Abubakarr Bangura, who fled the civil war in Sierra Leone and found his way to the Netherlands.
Growing up surrounded by hip-hop music, Abubakarr’s life took a dramatic turn when war broke out. Witnessing violence up close shaped his path as a peace activist — a journey that ultimately forced him to flee his country. After eight long years in the asylum system, he managed to rebuild his life, study pedagogy and business, and now gives back to both his homeland and his new community.
During this lunch program, actor Ousmane Bangoura brings Abubakarr’s story to life on stage in the Blauwe Zaal, accompanied by the mesmerizing music of Senegalese musician Mola Sylla. Together, they share a story of perseverance, dreams, and finding strength in community.
After the performance, you’re invited to stay for a meet and greet with Abubakarr himself. A unique opportunity to dive deeper into his story, ask your questions, and connect.
Price: Free
For whom: everyone

Have you ever wondered what your life would look like on paper? Would you like to explore what writing can bring you?
Writing can be a powerful tool for self-reflection and exploring life questions. In this workshop, TINT and KL!NK will take you through an evening of self-discovery and writing. A life coach from TINT will guide you through exercises where you can explore your story and your identity. Then, a host from Klink will provide prompts and strategies to put this new knowledge down on paper in a short creative writing session. No prior writing skills are needed. In this workshop, there’s plenty of room to share experiences, exchange stories, and inspire each other. Explore the art of writing while exploring the story of your life.
