Be a collaboration partner
An opportunity to share your story
In all our MDTs, we work with local guest speakers - our storytellers. Rather than giving formal presentations, these storytellers inspire participants through personal, authentic conversations about their lives and work experiences.
​
This personalized approach helps young people develop essential interpersonal skills, such as connecting and collaborating with people from different backgrounds. At the same time, each MDT highlights a key theme relevant to our storytellers and partners, creating meaningful dialogue and mutual impact.

Some words from out partners
It’s great for young people to gain a broader perspective on society and on the organizations that dedicate themselves to ensuring our country’s welfare and safety.
Commandant André van der Weide
"We really see the students grow throughout the program. The TINO team pays close attention to each participant’s needs and tailors the experience to both the group and the individual. That makes for a pleasant and truly rewarding collaboration.”
Remco, about his students from ROC Nijmegen
“I’m glad we’ve been able to give these students a broader understanding of the police — and to help break down some of the prejudices and barriers that existed before.”
