Institutional recognition
Letters of Support
Official letters received by the Barikat initiative and its international projects. Each record identifies the issuing institution, signatory and date, with the original document and the supplied sworn Dutch translation presented together where available.
An archive of trust and cooperation.
These documents reflect years of dialogue with cultural, diplomatic and international institutions. The archive is presented in a transparent format so visitors can inspect the source documents directly. Dutch translations are identified as sworn translations only when that document was supplied.
