The Culture Connect Project

In the heart of Rotterdam, a hyperdiverse city where more than 170 nationalities converge, a unique tapestry of cultures is woven. Did you know that over half of Rotterdam's residents are not born to parents of Dutch origin? We have started exploring this diversity at the Rotterdam International Secondary School (RISS). Many international school students are also known as Third Culture Kids, individuals who have grown up in cultures different from their parents'. These are the stories we want to celebrate and share. This is why we introduced The Culture Connect Project (TCCP) – an exciting journey that invites students to explore their own cultural experiences and stories.
