  • Inclusion Calendar 2025 from the University of Amsterdam

    We value the rich diversity of our international community. To help foster a culture of inclusion and mutual respect on campus, we'd like to highlight the University of Amsterdam's Inclusion Calendar as a practical tool for awareness and engagement. The calendar draws attention to important days across three categories: Meaningful Days, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Days, and Issue Days. It encourages recognition of different customs and traditions to help students and staff build mutual understanding and a more connected community.
