On 16 June 2022, the International Institute of Social Studies will once again host the International Storytelling Afternoon. During what has become a much-loved classic at Winternachten Festival, visitors, writers, students and teachers tell each other stories.
For this 'Summer edition', the stories will be focused around the theme Whose House Is This? Feel free to take 'the house' as a metaphor and to explore it from different angles: the house of the family, the house of society, of democracy, of literature...
The theme question Whose House is This? calls for stories about feeling at home (or not), leaving your home or finally finding it in an unexpected place.
Share your story
Come and listen to stories from all over the world and, if you like, share your own story!
Maximum 5 minutes and in English only - no other rules.
Special guests
On behalf of Winternachten Festival, authors Robin Block and Iman Mersal will be present and share their stories too.
Kees Biekart is the moderator of the afternoon. Lamin Kuyateh will be providing musical interludes.
