Erasmus School of Colour
As Erasmus School of Colour we are concerned with diversity and inclusion at the Erasmus University of Rotterdam. Part of this engagement entails a rethinking of those very same concepts of diversity and inclusion, because we want to break away from the established order within the university. In order to achieve this, we organize lectures, movie and documentary nights and small scale gatherings with an emphasis on (engaging in) public issues.
