Welcome to our weekly guide to Radio Netherlands Worldwide's English Service - a list of the new programs coming up on Radio Netherlands Worldwide this week, beginning on Saturday.
SATURDAY 24 MAY
*** The State We're In ***
This week on the show that looks at how we treat each other we're focusing on the growing trend in corporate philanthropy - companies, or rich individuals, giving money to help others. And we're not talking bake sales - we're talking canapés, cocktails and celebrities. So we go to the Global Philanthropy Forum to meet some of the charities vying for the billions at stake. Plus we speak with the GPF's head Jane Wales, who tells us why giving has become de rigueur for, in particular, the IT jet set.
We look at the right to sex and talk to the Dutch organisation that arranges 'sex care givers' for the disabled and learn that the word 'gig' in Thai means 'friendship with benefits'.
And getting back to philanthropy, but on a smaller scale, we talk about Kiva.org, the site where you can loan as little as 25 US dollars to a perspective entrepreneur in the developing world. We meet an American lender and the Ugandan woman who took the money, started a clothing retail business and, in contrast to the system of charity and grants, is now paying the cash back so it can be loaned to someone else.

*** Curious Orange ***
This week on Curious Orange: leaving the Lowlands. More and more Native Dutch are leaving Holland - we'll find out where they're going and why.
And, Arts & Culture editor Philip Smet will tell us about 'gevelstenen' - it doesn't really translate, so you'll just have to tune in to find out what they are!
Also, Perro de Jong will be in with his critical eye. And, as always, we'll feature a little Dutch music. This week we'll hear from the gypsy orchestra Zigeunerorkest Servus.

'Two women'
Host Dheera Sujan replays interviews with two of the most inspiring women she's met - they live in separate parts of the world, yet they have much in common. Both have given up their middle class lives of relative luxury to live in rural areas to help the children most in need. Every day, they look starvation and misery in the face and dedicate their lives to helping people combat them. Both have an endless capacity for love and despite daily proof of the contrary, both continue to believe that it is love that will in the end, conquer all.

'Two women'
Host Dheera Sujan replays interviews with two of the most inspiring women she's met - they live in separate parts of the world, yet they have much in common. Both have given up their middle class lives of relative luxury to live in rural areas to help the children most in need. Every day, they look starvation and misery in the face and dedicate their lives to helping people combat them. Both have an endless capacity for love and despite daily proof of the contrary, both continue to believe that it is love that will in the end, conquer all.
