Stichting Asian Raisins

Foundation Asian Raisins has been one of the leading organizations in combating racism against East and Southeast Asian people in the Netherlands since March 2020. We do this together with volunteers through three program themes: Storytelling, Action, and Community. Our Programs 1) Showcasing the diversity within East and Southeast Asian communities in the Netherlands. 2) Preventing, identifying, and taking action against racist incidents. 3) Creating a space where people from these communities can come together. With the goal of achieving an equal, representative, inclusive, and ultimately racism-free Netherlands. Our mission Asian Raisins fights racism against people of East- and Southeast Asian descent in the Netherlands. Our vission We fight for a country in which East and Southeast Asian people can recognise themselves as worthy human beings in every facet of society; not as a stereotype, second class citizen or laughingstock. In this country, East and Southeast Asian people could go outside without fear of being called names by strangers and racist comments would not be normalised as a joke. Everyone of East and Southeast Asian descent should be able to be proud of their roots, appearance and culture. In order to achieve these aspirations, an intersectional change of the system is required: in the media, politics, education and eventually society. Because no one else is doing it, we take matters into our own hands. We open the dialogue with governments, organisations and influential individuals. We take the streets to protest. We conduct awareness campaigns and rap racist parties over the knuckles. We will not wait any longer and claim our rightful place in The Netherlands ourselves. And you?

Elephant Haven - European Elephant Sanctuary (EHEES)

EHEES, Elephant Haven, European elephant sanctuary, is a sanctuary/retirement home for elephants from European zoos and circuses, which answers a legal need and requests from private owners. EHEES is a care center which offers the elephants a place for life and where their natural needs are respected and their diet is appropriate. It enables them to be re-socialized and rehabilitated in a protected environment. This is the true story of Gandhi and Delhi, Asian elephants, our two first retired residents in EHEES, the only elephant sanctuary in Europe. Indeed, in recent years, it has become both appropriate and necessary to create elephant placement centers in Europe. Private elephant owners, animal parks, zoos and other organizations may need a place for their elephant(s) to live. Almost all European countries ban wild animals from circuses, including France, where EHEES is situated. Bringing them back to their country of origin is not always possible. There was no place for housing the elephants in Europe. Retired elephants from zoos and circuses, like Gandhi and Delhi, our 2 first residents, have now a place for life. They, and the future other residents of Elephant Haven, need a lot of attention. Elephant Haven is expanding to be able to offer more elephants a place for life. Informative programmes about elephants and their behavior, in captivity and in the wild, will be organized to have a better understanding of elephants, as well as local fauna and flora. All this encourages a re-connection with nature and with all her creatures, to raise awareness and respect for the environment.
