EuroTech launches Gender Equality & Diversity Working Group

19 January 2022 | Last year, EuroTech sharpened its profile by defining a set of core values that are at the very heart of each partner university and hence also at the core of the EuroTech Universities Alliance. One of the values is Diversity & Inclusion. All universities have respective policies and initiatives in place and are now connecting with their peers within EuroTech. With a kick-off meeting on Monday, 17 January, representatives of all six EuroTech Universities launched a Working Group on Gender Equality & Diversity.
