The 22th of March
Team Diversity and Inclusion is pleased to invite you to participate in a Town Hall event on ethnic-cultural diversity & inclusion and global engagement organised for UAntwerpen students and staff.
With this event, we want:
- to inform and raise awareness about the university's diversity and inclusion policy
- to offer them the opportunity to discuss success stories and concerns through round table discussions and a panel debate
- to formulate recommendations to take targeted actions to promote ethno-cultural inclusion and global engagement.
We hope that this event will result in a university-wide network of students and staff who want to support this issue in the longer term.
