The fifth SDG focuses on Gender Equality and relates principally to remuneration for work, labour participation and the position of men and women in business and management. Another specific goal is the reduction of violence against women. At NHL Stenden we focus on these issues in various ways.
We want to be an inclusive institution where everyone feels welcome and at home, which is why we must do our best to create an inclusive work and study environment. The IDARE (Inclusion, Diversity, Anti Racism and Equity) working group plays a key role in keeping us on our toes regarding these issues.
To me, being able to be who you are is one of the most important values of our institution. All students and members of staff are welcome at NHL Stenden, regardless of background or sex." - Erica Schaper, Chair of the Executive Board
