The document discusses the Ramadan Festival, an event started in the Netherlands to promote intercultural dialogue and understanding between Muslims and non-Muslims. It provides background on the Muslim population in the Netherlands and increasing anti-Muslim sentiment. The festival was launched in 2005 in Amsterdam and has since expanded nationwide to create connections across religious and cultural lines and counteract rising tensions and prejudices. Partnerships with various organizations are key to the festival's success in using cultural exchange and celebration to build bridges within Dutch society.
