Save the Date: Workshop – "Be the change you want to see: How being authentic can improve academic culture at TU Delft" 

On 14 January 2025, from 14:30 to 21:00, DEWIS is organising the workshop "Be the change you want to see: How being authentic can improve academic culture at TU Delft" at the Art Centre Delft. This interactive event, followed by the DEWIS Award ceremony and a networking dinner, will explore how authenticity can transform the academic culture at TU Delft. 

Led by Prof. Belle Derks and Dr. Jenny Veldman, experts in social and organisational psychology at Utrecht University, the workshop will challenge the the belief that this culture is fixed and widely accepted, a phenomenon known as 'pluralistic ignorance', address issues such as exclusion and offer new perspectives on how to create an inclusive academic environment where everyone feels they belong. 

Academics are invited to reflect on the type of academic they want to be and how they can authentically express themselves at work. Participants learn about the potential of diversity in a group, discover their potential role in organisational change and develop their role as ‘agents of change’.

We are honoured to have the TU Delft Executive Board in attendance and encourage all academics to join us. 

More information and registration will follow.
