Dito calls itself the queer youth organisation of Nijmegen and is open to anyone between 18 and 28. It has its office in the Roze Huis on Sint Anthoniusplaats, which is also where most of what it does takes place.
The programme is social rather than political: drinks evenings and games nights in the bar room upstairs, introduction groups for people who are new to the city or newly out, a lending library, and a trip abroad organised by its own travel committee. Jong&Out is the strand for the youngest members. Once a year it fills a week of the Nijmegen student calendar with Roze Week.
Nijmegen is a student city and Dito is one of the reasons the queer scene here skews young. For a visitor in that age range it is the easiest way into it, and the organisation is used to people turning up on their own.
