Fryshuset and Dutch 125Procent are expanding their collaboration!
STOCKHOLM, March 11, 2021 – The challenges young people are facing today are both complex and global. Fryshuset and the Dutch organisation 125Procent have signed a new collaboration agreement with the intent of helping youths in facing these challenges. With this collaboration, Fryshuset is expanding our presence and operation in the Netherlands.

This more immersive collaboration agreement creates possibilities for many exciting and important projects for young people, both in Sweden and the Netherlands, and we are happy to have a partner that share our values”, says Johan Oljeqvist, Fryshuset CEO.
“I am looking forward to continuing, broadening and intensifying our cooperation with Fryshuset, because we strengthen each other through wide and diverse experiences and networks. By combining our visions, knowledge, experience and networks Fryshuset and 125Procent can contribute to the wellbeing and welfare of Dutch youth, as well as youth in other European countries, contribute to the Dutch methods and system by developing and producing youth projects and by investing in a new generation of youth workers and policymakers”, says Alan Brederhorst, founder and operations manager, 125Procent.
The mission of this collaboration is to promote youths personal and social development; open up possibilities for young people to participate in and contribute to societal development, as well as create relevant meeting places for, with and by youths. The agreement means an expanded collaboration between Fryshuset and 125Procent, and a further immersion of the collaboration that was started three years ago.
