YUFE Equity, Diversity, and Inclusivity online course

All UM staff and students have the opportunity to take a free online course created by Young Universities for the Future of Europe (YUFE).

The course delves into critical topics such as harassment, bullying, and microaggressions, equipping you with the knowledge and skills to address these issues head-on. Going a step further, the course aims to empower you to be an "upstander," someone who actively stands against discrimination, and to tackle unconscious biases.

UM Pride Ally Training

A workshop on how to become a better ally for the LGBTQIA+ community

Would you like to know how to better support the LGBTQIA+ community? Are you unfamiliar and unsure about terminology? Do you want to know how to make your language gender-inclusive? Do you want to learn about the queer community, but don't know where to start? Come join our workshop on how to be an LGBTQIA+ ally!

During this training, you will learn more about gender, sex assigned at birth, and sexuality. We will also discuss pronoun usage and apply this knowledge in practice. This is the time for you to learn, and we are always happy to answer any and all questions you have. We are here to address the things that you wouldn't feel comfortable asking in other situations.

It is also possible to request a training for your team or department. If you're interested in a training specifically for your department, please email: allytraining-bu@maastrichtuniversity.nl

Tote bags and brochures with the text: Ally training. In rainbow text: ally training. Two colourful teddy bears hugging each other.
