VPRO #Tegenlicht online deep dive – driedelige serie: Neo-Duitsland (TV internet)
Tegenlicht is een informatief televisieprogramma van de VPRO maandelijks op de eerste zondag op NPO 2.
Door de VPRO wordt het programma bestempeld als documentaire op het vlak van politiek, economie, sociologie en wetenschap. Het programma stelt zich ten doel inzicht in de werking van de samenleving te verschaffen.
De Duitse binnenlandse veiligheidsdienst heeft Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) officieel bestempeld als extreemrechts en een bedreiging voor de democratie. Volgens de dienst ondermijnt de partij de grondwettelijke orde en sluit ze bewust bepaalde bevolkingsgroepen uit. In de mini-serie Neo-Duitsland dook VPRO Tegenlicht dieper in de opkomst van de AfD en onderzocht waarom de partij, vooral in Oost-Duitsland, zo veel steun weet te vergaren. hoe bepaalt het Duitse verleden en heden de toekomst van Europa?

Plant Appreciation Day 2025
Plant Appreciation Day, which takes place every year on April 13th, is a day dedicated to recognizing plants’ incredible diversity, beauty, and importance.
Plants, as the foundation of life on Earth, provide us with oxygen, nutrients, and a variety of other essential resources. They not only help to sustain our ecosystems, but they also bring joy and inspiration into our lives through their beautiful colors and shapes. On this day, plant lovers, environmentalists, and garden enthusiasts come together to raise awareness about the importance of plants in our lives and the need to protect them. It is a day to reflect on our relationship with nature, develop a greater appreciation for the world’s flora, and take action to protect our planet’s green treasures.

#HumanSpaceFlightDay / Dag van de Ruimtevaart 2025
The UN General Assembly, in its resolution A/RES/65/271 of 7 April 2011, declared 12 April as the International Day of Human Space Flight “to celebrate each year at the international level the beginning of the space era for mankind, reaffirming the important contribution of space science and technology in achieving sustainable development goals and increasing the well-being of States and peoples, as well as ensuring the realization of their aspiration to maintain outer space for peaceful purposes.”
12 April 1961 was the date of the first human space flight, carried out by Yuri Gagarin, a Soviet citizen. This historic event opened the way for space exploration for the benefit of all humanity. The General Assembly expressed its deep conviction of the common interest of mankind in promoting and expanding the exploration and use of outer space, as the province of all mankind, for peaceful purposes and in continuing efforts to extend to all States the benefits derived there from.
