and workplace/management. This initiative has been quite successful over the past year and they managed to contact several stakeholders within and outside the VU to support the work, which made it clearer/more visible for our staff the several highly relevant
initiatives the VU has in terms of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
