The Russian military assault on Ukraine has profoundly shocked knowledge institutions in the Netherlands, as represented by Universities of the Netherlands, the Netherlands Association of Universities of Applied Sciences, the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Dutch Research Council, the Dutch Federation of University Medical Centres and The Young Academy.
“This is a direct assault on liberty and democracy, which are the fundamental values undergirding academic freedom and cooperation. All forms of partnership in education and research with Russia and Belarus are to be suspended immediately.”
Thank you, our Netherlands colleagues!
