Do we belong here?

It's (belonging) a reciprocated experience. It's not something you do alone. It's the culture, the environment, the relationship you're in, or the team you're on.

They are direct co-creators of the feeling of belonging."

(Hester Perel, Therapist & Psychologist)

Join us at Bureau Europa, on the 19th of October. Throughout the day, thanks to immersive participatory installations and live poetry performances, inhabitants, students and visitors have the opportunity to be inspired, feel connected and share their stories in relation to the spaces in which they live. 

Where do you belong? How do you relate to the spaces in which you live? 

Disconnect from technology, slow down. Reconnect with others and the spaces you live in through words, images and feelings. Re-engage your inner artistic talent, discovering how different people question their sense of belonging, and give value to their surroundings.

Walk inside whenever you can and stay for as long as you want. Sit down, take a nap, read, talk, listen or watch. Seize the opportunity to leave your frenetic and distracted lifestyle at the door.

The one-day event Do we belong here? has been created to offer, inhabitants, students and visitors of Maastricht, a glimpse of the ‘vita contemplativa’ - a way of living that is extremely important for our wellbeing, but from which we have distanced ourselves thanks to the fast-paced rhythms of Society.
