Room for Discussion | Sigrid Kaag: Minister of Foreign Trade & Cooperation Development @RoomforDiscussionUva | Uploaded May 2019 | Updated October 2024, 9 hours ago.
We are very proud to announce that we were joined on our stage by the Minister of Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation, Sigrid Kaag, on the 8th of May!
Kaag has worked on both international and now also national levels! From 2013 to 2014, she was the United Nations Special Coordinator for the OPCW-UN in Syria after which she assumed the position of United Nations Special Coordinator for Lebanon. In 2017 she moved into national politics and became the minister of Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation and now represents D’66 in the cabinet.
However, why D’66? Moreover, as a world citizen, does her future lie with international or national affairs? Is Development Cooperation based on Dutch interests? And as someone who has been in positions regarding both trade and humanitarian aid, how do these two interact? This and more during our interview with the minister!
What: The Minister of Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation, Sigrid Kaag, on D’66, The UN, Trade and Development Cooperation

How do the decisions we make influence the world around us? Does everything happen for a reason or do things just happen? Brian Klaas, an American political scientist specializing in democracy and authoritarianism, a contributing writer at The Atlantic, and associate professor in global politics at University College London, investigates these topics in his most recent book ‘Fluke: Chance, Chaos, and Why Everything We Do Matters.’
