Together with colleagues, you will have the opportunity to deepen your understanding of what academic freedom means for you, share experiences and reflections, and help shape the university’s work on academic freedom. All employees are welcome – doctoral students, teachers, researchers and professional services staff. Your participation matters! (Students will be invited to separate meetings of their own.)
The meeting is led by a working group appointed by Lund University to focus on academic freedom and the University’s role in society. Each session will last 90 minutes, and refreshments will be provided.
