Revolt of the Unheard: Populism Comes to the Netherlands

  • Thu, Apr 03, 2025
  • 7:00 pm–9:00 pm

Covenant Fine Arts Recital Hall


Gert-Jan Segers

A lecture by Gert-Jan Segers, a member of the Dutch Parliament from 2012-2023. He is a former leader of the Christian Union Party and was a two-time member of the coalition government of the Netherlands.

For many decades, The Netherlands has been shaped and governed by three political forces: Christian-Democrat, Social-Democrats, and Liberals. This all has changed dramatically in the last two decades with now a Populist party as the largest in Parliament. This is the outcome of drastic changes in Dutch society itself. As a Dutch political leader and Member of Parliament, Gert-Jan Segers has witnessed this ‘Revolt of the Unheard’ and had to navigate as a Christian politician through these new and sometimes rough and polarized realities. In this lecture, Segers will share his lessons learned and ideas of how Christians can be faithful servants in this new era of Populism.

This lecture is sponsored by the Frederik Meijer Chair in Dutch Language and Culture at Â鶹Çø.
