EenVandaag will be handling the content, and Hoevers and his committee will be in charge of the organisation surrounding the event. Hoevers also was involved in organising the debate for the provincial elections in March, acting as a stand-in for one of the politicians on the stage during the run-through ahead of the debate, among other things.<\/p>\n<p>On 20 November, he will be responsible for logistics. \u201cI\u2019ll be responsible for organising who stands where at what specific time and ensuring everything runs smoothly.\u201d Until that time, Hoevers will be busy promoting the event, getting Ahoy ready and recruiting volunteers. \u201cWe need about twenty or so, mostly to scan tickets.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breaking with tradition<\/h2><p>For the first time, the debate will be taking place at Ahoy \u2013 it was previously always held in the Aula at the Woudestein campus. The new venue is bigger and can host almost twice as many students. This break with tradition is also related to the security arrangements of the politicians involved, which have increasingly become more expensive and more complex, says Hoevers. \u201cPoliticians regularly have to deal with threats, which means that security is an issue that has to be taken seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ahoy has more experience with security arrangements for such gatherings. \u201cImportant events, Dutch celebrities, groups of fans. At Ahoy, they\u2019re used to accommodating that many people at once and making effective arrangements. They\u2019re used to a higher level of security than a university.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1500 tickets<\/h2><p>The most important task Hoevers and his fellow organisers have at the moment is to make sure the venue is packed. The venue at Ahoy has one advantage in that regard: \u201cWe now have an opportunity to get more students involved in politics, because can sell 1,500 tickets instead of 800.\u201d Last week, half of the tickets had already been sold \u2013 within a single day. Hoevers hopes to be able to sell the rest of the tickets, which is why EFR members are promoting the event on campus. He is also in contact with other education institutions in Rotterdam: \u201cPolitics affects everyone, so we feel it\u2019s important that those students are involved too.\u201d<\/p>\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/featured-text\" class=\"md:mt-6 p-4 md:p-6 lg:p-8 bg-sand-300 theme-sand:bg-white theme-violet:bg-white theme-mocha:bg-white wysiwyg *:last:mb-0!\" >\n\t\t<p>Tickets are available via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.efr.nl\/events\/overview\/product\/765\/930\">the EFR website<\/a> and cost 12.50 euros.
