A discussion night about 'occupying' and alternative visions on the future of our schools and universities. Students are back on the barricades! This May alone, around 70 schools & universities in Europe were occupied, of which at least 8 took place in the Netherlands. They call out for radical change in their educational institutions, concerning various topics ranging from decarbonisation, gender discrimination, decolonisation, democratisation and the overall way in which knowledge is produced and distributed. The occupied spaces were filled with colorful banners, autonomous areas where students and staff could learn together, debate, craft, rest and eat free food. And it’s ruffled some feathers already, as the Vrije Universiteit reacted by cutting all ties with fossil fuel companies. This night we will philosophise about the future of our educational institutions by challenging who and what it’s serving and envisioning alternative ways of what education should look like. -- (Text and image) https://dezwijger.nl/programma/whos-education-our-education
