GNE offers you a great opportunity to share your interests with others
The Genootschap Nederland-Engeland is a Dutch society which aims at promoting friendly relations between the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. The British Ambassador is Patron of the Society.
The Genootschap (GNE for short) was founded in 1920. Most of the activities are organized by the nine GNE-branches. Their programmes and further branch details can be accessed by clicking the branch name in the left-hand column of this page.
As the branches enjoy a great deal of independence, their programmes show considerable variety; all of them, however, organize regular talks on cultural, historical and other subjects. The link Lectures above will give you an idea about the topics covered in the current season.
Each branch produces its own English language newsletter, the Bulletin, which comes out five or six times a season and is sent to branch members by ordinary mail. These Bulletins contain information about the programme throughout the season, details on coming lectures, reports of past activities and other items of interest. Most branches also publish their Bulletins on this website.
Apart from branch activities, national events are organised, sometimes by branches, at other times by the national committee.
