On Tuesday, Queen Maxima attended several engagements in Groningen. She first attended meetings with Mind US where she learned more about the Mental Healthy Groningen program and the STORM teacher training. Compared to the rest of the Netherlands, Groningen has a relatively high use of youth care and long-term assistance programs.

Afterward, Queen Maxima opened the University academic year at the Hanze University of Applied Sciences in Groningen. In her speech, Queen Maxima said: “Everyone's talent deserves the opportunity for development. It doesn't have to be perfect from day one. Give yourself the space and time to find your own rhythm. And embrace the adventure.”

Queen Maxima wore her Natan dress with her Gianvito Rossi pumps and her A Bag With A Story clutch. She paired the outfit with her Hemmerle earrings and her Dinh Van and Marianna Goulandris bracelets.
