Think freely. Now.
The foundations our society is built on – freedom, equality, solidarity – are shaking. Ideas that once grew out of the Enlightenment are under pressure today. What once felt self-evident, no longer is.
What kind of world do you want to wake up in tomorrow? That choice is yours. Here and now. Join our events and get inspired by other free thinkers. Speak up and take a stand – for more freedom, more equality and more solidarity.
Programme
In May, VUB joins the rest of the world in reflecting on key freedoms: freedom of expression and press freedom (2–3 May), the end of WWII, the right to freedom, and the role of resistance heroes (V-Day on 8 May 1945), the post-war decision of European countries to work together politically, to prevent future wars and to protect the right to live in peace (Europe Day on 9 May 1950), and the right to make decisions about one’s own body and identity – including for LGBTQIA+ people (17 May). On top of that, we add a few typical VUB activities that challenge you to think critically about our freedoms.
