In 2007, in a first phase of the programme development, nine projects were selected for funding (one of which is financed by the VSB Foundation). After the programme's formal kick-off conference on May 27, 2008, a second call for proposals was held in 2009, adding another six projects to the main programme. Finally, a sub-programme entitled Dynamics of War Heritage, Memory and Remembrance: the Netherlands in the Second World War with five smaller projects – on post-war Jewish memory, the future of war heritage, sites of terror in Europe, camps in the Netherlands, and war prisoners – was included, which may be considered as a sixth line of approach focusing on contemporary cultural memory. Following a second conference held on April 9, 2010, the programme has entered a new phase, focusing on a growing interaction between the selected projects, in view of a more global outcome.
