Shape the City: Caring Communities

Updated 11 September 2026 at 08:41
Strong communities are essential to a resilient city. Through the Caring Communities track of Shape the City, conferences can support organisations that work to improve wellbeing, reduce social isolation, and provide practical support to people across Amsterdam.

How conferences can contribute to inclusive communities in Amsterdam

Activities within this track focus on social connection, inclusion, and access to essential support. Delegates can contribute to community initiatives that:

  • Support people experiencing social or economic hardship through donations of essential goods
  • Take part in organised volunteering activities with local organisations
  • Strengthen neighbourhood networks and community-based support
