Lecture: Academic freedom through the eyes of a refugee
Academic freedom is under pressure around the globe. Scholars are threatened for their ideas and research and there is an urgent need for support. The Foundation for Refugee Students UAF coordinates the SAR network in the Netherlands and Belgium and helps threatened scholars to continue their work in a safe environment.
On February 22nd, the UAF offers a lecture in which two scholars will share their experiences concerning the importance of academic freedom. One is a teaching assistant for the class of World heritage: Historical sites, contemporary debates and for the class of Architectural and Town Planning Heritage. His colleague is doing research in pavement engineering. The lecture will be held at the Commissiekamer 3 at the aula from 16.00h – 17.00h. We will end the lecture with drinks. You can register here for the lecture (first come, first serve).
