Homewards: feel at home in Eindhoven

Welcome to the Eindhoven region! Just moved here? Excited to meet new people and to discover the city? We got you! The Homewards Social Onboarding Program is all about exploring the local culture and connecting with others. Over three months, we will help you find your way in Eindhoven and expand your social network.

Whether you're staying for a longer period, or building a new life here from scratch, join us for an exciting journey to feel at home. The Homewards program is designed for those new to the Eindhoven region; both Dutch and international newcomers are welcome! 

The pilot edition of this program kicks off on 4 October for 120 newcomers. The Homewards program is spread over three months and consists of three events: 

• Homewards The Welcome Evening: Kick-off your exciting new journey in the Eindhoven region at the welcome evening on 4 October.
• Homewards The Workshop: This workshop on 2 November will help you to navigate the city and explore Eindhoven's hidden and famous spots. 
• Homewards The Quiz: During this final event of the Onboarding on 1 December, you'll head into town to learn lots of fun things about the city. 

The Homewards program is centered around building meaningful connections. From day one, we’ll create WhatsApp groups to connect you with your peers. Meagin and Andrea, your Homewards Community Managers, will be part of these groups to help you settle into life in Eindhoven. They’ll share tips, answer your questions, and guide you along the way.

Would you like to join the Homewards program? We recommend you to participate in all three events for the ultimate onboarding experience! Please note that you need to sign up for each event individually. 

The Homewards Social Onboarding Program is organized and supported by Holland Expat Center South, Brainport Eindhoven and This is Eindhoven.
