The Dutch in New Zealand are often referred to as “invisible migrants” and the aim of
Dutch Week is to create visibility for Dutch communities and businesses and to invite
everyone to participate in a celebration of Dutch food, language, heritage and culture.
Dutch Week will be officially opened by the Hon. Priyanca Radhakrishnan, Minister for
Diversity, Inclusion and Ethnic Communities, and Mira Woldberg, the Netherlands
Ambassador to New Zealand, on 24 April at the Te Awahou Nieuwe Stroom cultural
and community centre in Foxton.
