On March 11, 2026, Queen Máxima paid a working visit to the Anne-Bo Foundation at LAB111 in Amsterdam. The foundation focuses on girls for whom studying is not self-evident, for example because they grow up in poverty, have a refugee background, or come from the youth care system. Through a personal coach, scholarships, housing, study materials, a network, and workshops, they are supported during their studies.
Queen Máxima spoke with several students and their coaches about the guidance they receive and what the support means to them. She also spoke with residents of the Anne-Bo houses about their personal situations and the housing facilities. The Queen then joined the workshop “Financially Healthy Living,” an example of one of the activities of the Anne-Bo Academy.
