Podcast The Day: Carola Schouten’s Rotterdam

The incoming mayor of Rotterdam, Carola Schouten, can prepare herself, because Rotterdam is not an easy city to govern. That is what the people of Rotterdam say themselves and also what outgoing mayor Aboutaleb said yesterday during his farewell. Although Schouten knows the city well, and according to the city council also fits in well, her task is complex.

In this podcast you will hear various well-known and lesser-known Rotterdammers with their message to the new mayor. And Eeva Liukku, editor-in-chief of the Rotterdam journalistic platform Vers Beton, outlines how difficult it is for the mayor to meet expectations – partly due to the always critical attitude of Rotterdammers, but also because the possibilities of a mayor are limited.
