Holländisches Modell

The Holländisches Modell, or Dutch Model, is a way to manage immigration and integration in the Netherlands by encouraging immigrants to learn the Dutch language and culture early on. It emphasizes cooperation among government, employers, and educational institutions to provide language courses, vocational training, and support services. The goal is to help newcomers integrate smoothly into society and the labor market, promoting social cohesion and economic participation. Essentially, it’s a comprehensive approach that focuses on early intervention and collaboration to ensure newcomers become active, independent, and valued members of Dutch society.
