Talent for Good Forum 2026: Shaping Trust in the Future

Join the Talent for Good Forum, an immersive experience designed to give you the skills, the connections, and deeper insights to navigate the next steps in your career. Open to anyone interested in exploring impact-driven careers and the future of meaningful work.

Why the Forum?

The Talent for Good Forum is organised by The Hague Humanity Hub in partnership with The Hague University of Applied Sciences, and with the support of the major universities and higher education institutions in The Hague.

This year, we’re moving beyond the traditional career fair to create a knowledge-driven experience that combines direct career access with expert-led dialogue, interactive sessions, and meaningful networking. Hosted in the heart of The Hague, the International City of Peace and Justice, the Forum brings together student energy, professional expertise, and organisations working to shape a more just, sustainable, and resilient future.

Morning Programme

• 11:00-13:30 – Career Fair

Meet the IGOs, NGOs, government entities, and mission-driven businesses that make up The Hague’s peace and justice ecosystem. Whether you are looking for inspiration, exploring internship and volunteer opportunities, or considering a professional leap, this is where you discover organisations, build your network, and explore career pathways.

Afternoon Programme

• 13:00-13:45 - Keynotes

Join the conversation on our 2026 theme: “Shaping Trust in the Future.” Hear insights from HRH Princess Laurentien van Oranje and Emma Wedner, Chairperson Council of Europe Advisory Council on Youth, on how can you help rebuild trust in communities, institutions, movements, and more, as you kickstart your impact-driven career in an era of misinformation and global instability.

• 14:00-15:30 - Breakout Sessions

Together with fellow participants and expert facilitators, you will exchange ideas and perspectives on themes ranging from multilateralism and international development to AI, climate, media, and international business.

• 15:45-17:00 - Expert Panel

The closing panel explores how the next generation of professionals and changemakers can contribute to stronger, more trusted institutions, communities, and movements.
