The International Dinner Committee (IDC) is in charge of organising the popular “gezellige” International Dinners every three to four weeks! The goal of these dinners is for international students to showcase and celebrate the food, culture, and vibe of their home country. Participants can enjoy traditional meals and experience a different culture’s culinary traditions. Every time, three students from the “host” country are invited to cook a delicious three-course meal. In between the meals, the IDC organises activities to introduce you to the culture of the country!
