Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam wants its employees, PhD candidates and students to work and learn in a safe and inspiring environment where they can be themselves and develop to their full potential. This requires a safe and inclusive working and study climate in which employees, students and PhD candidates interact with respect, courtesy and appreciation for everyone's individuality.
Ever since its foundation, VU Amsterdam has stood for diversity and inclusion. Differences between or within disciplines, cultures, ideas, nationalities, beliefs and worldviews, provide us with the opportunity to learn from and with each other.
Yet it may happen that you are confronted with behaviour or situations that make you feel unsafe or treated unfairly. You may also suspect that someone is not complying with regulations. Then there are people you can talk to or seek advice from. Below we show you the way to the right person.
