That’s a wrap! Dutch Caribbean Research Week 2026

What an inspiring and impactful week it has been! Over the past days, the Dutch Caribbean Research Week 2026 (DCRW2026) brought together researchers, professionals, and communities from across the region and beyond.

From Curaçao to Saba, each day centred around key themes that matter for the future of the Caribbean. From health & healthcare to ecology & environment and from culture, literature & arts to governance & law. We’ve seen valuable knowledge exchange, meaningful discussions, and new connections being formed.

A special thank you to all speakers for sharing their expertise and insights and to everyone who joined us onsite and online. Your engagement made this week truly dynamic and enriching!

💡 Together, we continue to strengthen research, collaboration, and impact within the Dutch Caribbean and beyond.

📄 The presentations that have been shared with us are now available on our website!
