About D. Dijkema
Freelance consultant in International Relations
I’m a freelance consultant passionate about building bridges between people, businesses, and ideas. My work focuses on international relations and foreign trade, with a strong emphasis on sustainability, the green transition, and the opportunities they create when we work together.
I specialise in helping Dutch businesses, organisations, and public bodies explore and connect with partners across the Nordic region. By combining research, strategic insights, and stakeholder engagement, I help identify where innovation meets collaboration — and where shared ambitions can turn into tangible action.
My work often takes me to ports and maritime hubs, where the green transition is already taking shape. From energy-efficient solutions to forward-thinking policies, I explore how sustainable practices are reshaping industries and opening doors for new forms of international cooperation.
What drives me is simple: bringing the right people together. I believe real progress happens through meaningful partnerships — where expertise, ambition, and trust align to create lasting impact.
This isn’t just about trade or policy. It’s about creating connections that help shape a greener, more resilient future.
