Why become a Member of the Erasmus Foundation? We encourage you to become a member of the Erasmus Foundation if: You are interested in Dutch and Australian culture and their interaction; You like to know more about topics of general interest; You want to promote a mutual understanding and friendship between our two countries and support the objectives of the Erasmus Foundation, and You want to have an enjoyable time among like-minded people at our meetings.

.At our dinner meetings invited speakers address members on subjects of general interest (see our list of previous guest speakers).

On occasions we organise special events in the Dutch language.
