Why Unity Day?

Each year, MSA Netherlands brings together the board and committee members of its affiliated student associations for a day of unity, growth, and connection.

This year's theme is: "One Ummah, One Future" In a time of division and challenge, we return to the strength of our unity as Muslim students and leaders. Through talks, discussions, and shared experiences, we explore what it means to build a future rooted in faith, community, and responsibility.

The day will feature a powerful keynote, deep-diving panels, skill-building workshops, and joyful moments of connection over prayer, food, and recognition.

❗This event is exclusively for committee and (alumni) board members of our member organisations.
