analysed the governance of sustainability at UM with a particular focus on the workings of the SUM 2030. This report was drafted by the KAN Party team in collaboration with alumni and staff members of UM to enable the most accurate assessment possible. In summary, fundamental structural changes of the SUM2030 are needed in order for it to fulfill its important role; the SUM2030’s capacity, decision-making, and transparency must improve. We always strive for collaborative approaches and constructive communication, which is why we have presented the report in the University Council. Consequently, our University Councillors met with members of the Taskforce in February 2021 to discuss the report’s critical points and next steps. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1613378071148-LXTASYGGBH4SNC38PUT1/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Student Housing The quality and conditions of student housing influence not only academic performance, but also student wellbeing. We are helping students with getting access to their housing in the (legally) right conditions. We have established clear communication between students, housing policymakers and stakeholders with a significant emphasis on housing rights. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1613376863418-JHZ29YT8N3X1CQIXLLCR/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Ecosia at UM In our vision for UM, we emphasise its role as an educational institution which brings forward social responsibility through education and research. However, social responsibility can - and should - also be implemented through socially responsible operations. That is why we proposed and successfully implemented Ecosia as a standard browser on all computers managed by the UM library. This includes Athena Desktop. We are now working on bringing Ecosia to all faculties’ computers so our searches will plant trees. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1613379118131-DHDOC96L66H3GZN8Y9OC/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Mental Health In the mental health project our UC member Freddy works closely together with the Wellbeing Team leaders on issues like writing the new strategy for UM and developing the offers at UM further. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1613379759065-NHGRJVUHZO45R2B0SA6R/UM+Climate+letter.png What we have achieved - UM Climate Letter KAN Party’s Sustainability Governance project underlines our focus on analysing and engaging with current developments at UM when it comes to its social responsibility. With our focus on sustainability, we are genuinely concerned with the lack of a comprehensive sustainability strategy, of capacity in sustainability, and of accountability related to sustainability. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1613378755104-O6127ZR6M2ICUWV3S164/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Strategic Programme of UM UM drafts a strategic programme every four years, defining its focus for that time frame including aspects such as core values and aims. Since this Strategic Programme guides many processes on both central and faculty levels for four years, it is important to include students’ concerns. As a member of the University Council’s Strategy Committee, our KAN Party representative Freddy is working together with the Strategy Committee of the UC and the Executive Board on making the challenges in the 21st century, such as sustainability, and D&I, central themes with concrete and ambitious goals. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1614003703028-TAC7ANXDHNHXTO4M4KLJ/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Faculty Action Plans We want to come up with actionable plans and goals for faculties. From our conversations with the boards/management of faculties, we know that we cannot expect much by saying “something” needs to be done. We can push for change more effectively by coming up with a plan of what faculties can do (and ideally how they can do it) to become more sustainable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1613378828585-0D9U3LAOQHUGJKT43YEI/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - DUO Studying in Maastricht comes with all kinds of challenges, one of which is the financial cost of studying. Many students rely on study financing to afford their studies at UM. However, some of the “requirements” set out by DUO as conditions for receiving such study financing do not conform with EU law. We are working on raising awareness on students’ rights and on initiating structural changes in students’ treatment. Every student should be able to access the financial support assured by legal frameworks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1614207936574-DNEAIPH30DI3V1F73FZ8/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Diversity & Inclusivity The KAN Party Team decisively steps in for diversity and inclusivity. We collaborate with the Diversity and Inclusivity Office on integrating diversity and inclusivity into faculties and central level policies. This is why we’re working on decolonising curricula at UM and actively engaging with students and student organisations regarding diversity and inclusivity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1614208429768-Q7E6GS2OQ7X4A8Q1C1PI/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Policy Statement in Favor of Divestment In response to the campaign of the KAN organization Fossil Free, the Executive Board agreed to make a statement in favour of divesting and calling the pension fund ABP to divest. UC member Freddy is continuously following up on the progress of the draft with the coordinator of the Sustainable UM 2030 Taskforce and the Executive Board. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1613380174667-MET2A67W0JANZCDMYBWD/Untitled+design-4.png What we have achieved - Education for the Future We, the KAN Party team, hold that UM’s role as an educational institution gives it the responsibility to provide relevant and thorough education. We drafted our first programme-specific report on education for the future for MSP. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1614208496640-054VSBBTMIAXIKCNR2SX/image-asset.jpeg What we have achieved - Health Symposium We are already working on integrating challenges of the 21st century in curricula in several projects. However, we are also working on communicating some insights into education for the future outside of existing curricula. The KAN Party team is the driving force behind the Global Health Symposium in April. The 2-half-day symposium links global health with climate change and biodiversity loss and will end with a panel discussion on how these topics could be permanently integrated in the health curricula. After the symposium, this will be further worked on https://www.kanmaastricht.org/kan-party-project-ecosia daily 0.75 2022-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1634416514545-VIWQK473GYDHG108B5HX/image-asset.jpeg Ecosia @ UM - Ecosia @ UM In our vision for UM, we emphasize its role as an educational institution that brings forward social responsibility through education and research.

Many students have not found a place to stay at. The university and the municipality are not taking enough short-term actions. So we need to help each other. This is why we have started a couch surfing initiative. These are people from Maastricht helping homeless students out of solidarity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/e78b3c3c-a3c1-4e63-a3c1-514948d8676e/unsplash-image-bwCbUYm-_YQ.jpg Student Housing - Actions & Achievements • Collaboration with the national student union (LSVB) and the Setup of a committee consisting of multiple student representation parties in order to broaden knowledge and receive more backup in initiatives for the improvement of housing. • Clarification has been obtained on housing policy cycles, which enables us to better identify opportunities in lobbying towards better housing conditions for students. • The new housing program for 2020-2030 has been presented at a municipal level. We have provided critical feedback on the program, advocating the flexibility in housing supply and advocating for better housing regulations.

I’m Phil, a third-year UCM student focusing on international relations, law, and the EU. In my free time, I enjoy doing sports, taking photos, debating at Model-UNs, and being engaged in Amnesty International and ECA. Apart from its 1.5°C goal, I will make mental health and inclusivity one of the priorities in the Faculty Council. Further, every student should have access to affordable housing. FSE should also extend its scholarships for financially disadvantaged and non-EU students. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/3eb807a4-b90a-4fc1-87d2-3f55670a891a/Manu.JPG FSE Council - Manuel Mtsoumou Manuel Mtsoumou FSE Council I'm Manu, a third year student at UCM. In my three years at the university, I've been involved at UCM, the faculty and KAN to bring about positive change and ensure students are represented as best as they can. In my free time, I enjoy going on runs and watching documentaries. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/ed60ac32-9ee3-4b29-8cfb-2b78331b914c/Ruben_FSE.jpeg FSE Council - Gabriel Hauss Ruben Backx FSE Council Hallo! My name is Ruben and I’m a third year at UCM studying international relations and economics. When I’m not doing readings, I like to play football, hang out with friends or go for ‘one’ beer. Previously, I was the Treasurer and Vice-President of UCM’s study association. Now, I hope to use my experience and voice to represent you on the Faculty Council. I want to empower the UM2030 Task Force for Sustainability to push for more positive change, ensure both student and staff wellbeing is considered at the decision-making level, and to provide further support for UM students in all housing-related issues. https://www.kanmaastricht.org/our-fasos-council daily 0.75 2022-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/81d802b3-2703-4501-adb0-8fb522320a3c/IMG_1118.JPG FASoS Council - Helena Sanvicente FASoS Council Hello! I’m Helena, a second-year Global Studies student with a passion for sustainability, diversity, and inclusivity. Outside of FASoS, you may catch me enjoying some sun in the park or swaying behind the decks. I have represented KAN and fellow students as Vice-Chair of the FASoS Faculty Council this year. The projects I worked on revolved around student safety and wellbeing, sexual harassment, and sustainability. I am proud to be part of KAN because our goals relate to big picture issues that affect the university and our society beyond UM https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/72334c8f-2ac1-4e19-a50c-0ed2669c31c2/Krithik.JPG FASoS Council - Krithik Rock FASoS Council Hey! I’m Krithik, currently pursuing my second-year in European Studies. I’m from Pondicherry, in South India, but grew up in Malaysia and Singapore, learning to love multiculturalism along the way. After having spent this academic year on the board of KAN Party, I bring an approach which unites that understanding of UM’s political arena with my ardency to engage with representing and building my community(ies) in order to see UM through to its greener and more international ambitions. Something on your mind? Seek me out at the Sustainability Hub or Banditos at FASoS, I’m only a quick text away! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/c984066d-09c7-4943-ac8e-fded364216a6/Alina.JPG FASoS Council - Alina Timosenco FASoS Council I’m Alina and I’m in my second year of Global Studies. Besides being passionate about sustainability, in my free time I enjoy reading, meditating and I often find peace in nature. Climate awareness and intersectionality are some of the values that I preach and promote as an activist and a KAN member. I believe that small steps taken within FASoS Council can lead to a better academic environment, a more inclusive community that cares for the planet too. This is why, running for FC, means to me taking a step further in getting involved as a student and advocating for our needs and ideas, prioritizing well being, diversity and inclusivity. https://www.kanmaastricht.org/our-fpn-council daily 0.75 2022-09-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/f1a86f41-f58d-405e-887a-84f7b28543e8/Hannah.jpeg FPN Council - Hannah Finklenburg I’m Hannah, in my second year of studying psychology. This year, thanks to your votes last year, I could stimulate the first discussions and actions on becoming more sustainable as a faculty, by building up the FPN Sustainability Platform. Additionally, to teach students how to apply psychological knowledge to mitigate climate change, we are creating the “International Psychology and Climate Change“ elective. I will further focus on the training of staff/ tutors to create an inclusive atmosphere at our faculty. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/bc7fdfa0-ae53-4276-b77c-7cc2969278ff/lilly.jpeg FPN Council - Lilly Schröder am Lilly, 21 years old and I am already in my third year of Psychology. Over the past year, I have put a lot of time into the Faculty Council to try and make our Faculty a place where everyone feels welcome and has a pleasant time. I would love to continue this work to finish all of the projects that were started, now that I have collected some experience already. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/ced43f4e-f986-4e6a-a5c0-d5f5562a7340/Ernest.JPG FPN Council - Ernest In my first year an electric bad weather cloud from Mario kart would often be flying above my head.

Miscommunication with the university cost me an extra year, which is why I believe communication and information should be clear and accessible. My experience in political groups has taught me to navigate controversy while constructively engaging. I believe UM, while amazing in principle, still has a long way to go. I want to stimulate intra-university communication as a means to enhance student wellbeing and engagement. https://www.kanmaastricht.org/our-sbe-council daily 0.75 2022-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/7ca0e24c-29dc-4223-928d-bdd071e9f870/Sachi.jpeg SBE Council - Sachi Patil SBE Council Hoi! I’m Sachi (she/they), a second year International Business student at SBE! I'm a big fan of reading, hydration, and always having something new to do. As a Faculty Councillor, I'll prioritize merging the human and environmental sides of sustainability to put YOU in the centre. In other words, I'll focus both on student well-being, and UM's social responsibility. Having previous experiences in student councils and advisory boards, I'm confident in my ability to amplify your voice and create the change you want.

We have provided critical feedback on the program, advocating the flexibility in housing supply and advocating for better housing regulations. This has been taken up by political parties, such as D66 who then encouraged the counselor on housing and environment to look into this. However, this program is still in development and efforts are still required to ensure long term improvement of student interests. • Established communication with the Huurteam-Zuid Limburg, a free legal office set-up by the municipality and UM who provides free advice and help towards renters whenever they have any rent related issues https://huurteam-zuidlimburg.nl.

I’m from Pondicherry, in South India, but grew up in Malaysia and Singapore, learning to love multiculturalism along the way. Besides a board year with KAN Party and two with UNSA Maastricht, I've accrued experience as both the Vice-Chair of the FASoS Faculty Council as well as the Chair of the Strategy Committee of the University Council, that I am currently serving as. I therefore bring an approach which unites that understanding of UM’s political arena with my ardency to engage with representing and building the community(ies) surrounding us, in order to see UM through to its greener and more international ambitions. In particular, I intend to address the university's local engagement and cooperation with the municipality to provide solutions for the housing crisis, and to continue the University Council's work supporting the work of the Diversity and Inclusivity Office and the Sexual Safety Programme. Wanna learn more about KAN Party or just how these councils work or maybe do you have concerns and proposals regarding something at the university? Seek me out at the Sustainability Hub or in Banditos at FASoS or reach out to KAN Party on Instagram! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/22fcb4aa-f141-4ec7-b68d-5dfd8f77bf85/18+Kan+Party+Fac.+Councel+SBE.DSCF2253+kopie.jpg UC KANdidates 2024 - Alina Timoșenco Hello, UM! I'm Alina, a Sustainability student and a KAN canditate for the University Council. Besides studying, I enjoy reading, running, and pet-sitting.

I am Demi, a first-year UCM student. The past year, I have been on the board of KAN Party and I worked among others on organizing the Sustainability Week. I dream of a socially safe and inclusive university where sustainability and well-being are promoted and further embedded in the curriculum. I want to foster participation and transparency at UM by creating an environment where students feel empowered to share their opinions inside and outside of the councils and engage in extracurricular activities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/f855b1ec-f4ec-4b5c-809c-497676fe4f51/Marts.JPG Our University Council - Marts Ivaskis My name is Marts, and I’m a third year European law student! Alongside my studies, I work in the Ministry of Justice, providing advice and commentary in ECJ cases involving Latvia, and have co-founded student projects such as SOSMaastricht and the 56hourrule.nl! This year I’ve decided to put a focus on fostering innovation through more opportunities for student start-ups, inclusivity through a movement to make UM guideline and texts utilize gender-neutral pronouns, and through communicating with student associations to achieve better representation. https://www.kanmaastricht.org/kan-party-board daily 0.75 2026-01-25

I’m Teo, I’m a second year European Law student. In my free time I love to draw, take care of my plants and binge watch netflix. I’m running for Faculty Council because I want to help make UM sustainable, inclusive and build a strong Law community that will help students achieve their potential and open new opportunities. https://www.kanmaastricht.org/new-page daily 0.75 2023-06-28 https://www.kanmaastricht.org/our-mission daily 0.75 2026-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1618995210744-D5HPDWYIPMYC0XIABMKT/transparentkanparty.png Our Mission - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/fc3959f4-1102-4000-8c66-351fc686a323/eyoel-kahssay-FyCjvyPG9Pg-unsplash.jpg Our Mission - 1. Sustainability and Social Responsibility As a university, UM acts as a key actor in science and society. UM has a social responsibility to contribute to the creation of a better, more equal and sustainable world. UM must foster the local economy, commit to limiting global warming to 1.5°C as prescribed by the IPCC and collaborate with other local actors in order to tackle contemporary challenges. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1636834410281-YDF1JKBA37KQMM0K2R53/unsplash-image-2JIvboGLeho.jpg Our Mission - 2. Education for the Future Our future is uncertain. Most of our social systems need to be restructured if not reinvented and the education we receive at UM must reflect this challenge. It has been shown that introducing holistic curricula and establishing a link between societal challenges and the content of courses promotes scientific literacy and fosters co-responsibility. UM must have a decolonized modern curricula that gives room to the impact climate change has on every area of study. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/c4c93c55-cdb1-4de2-8116-faf2965ebbfe/priscilla-du-preez-aPa843frIzI-unsplash.jpg Our Mission - 3. Wellbeing - Health, Safety & Housing Being at UM should be a positive experience for everyone - from students and administrative staff to tutors and cleaning personnel. High quality wellbeing support must be provided to every member of the community tailored to individuals’ needs. UM should guarantee optimal working and learning conditions. This entails: Fair pay for every worker, with an emphasis on invisible staff and student staff, adequate financial support and training for student organisations and associations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/1636834626913-QDMRZEQ5LCB1NGR5LUNO/unsplash-image-wpi3sDUrSEk.jpg Our Mission - 4. Participation, Communication & Transparency As a student party, we want to hold UM accountable for its decisions and actions. However, a prerequisite for accountability is transparency. It is currently very difficult to evaluate UM’s internal and external functioning, including its sustainability policy, because of a lack of public information and reporting. Furthermore, more transparency is needed to encourage students’ and staff’s involvement in democratic processes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/223c4fe4-7b71-4a30-9859-d550b0ff0b84/alexander-grey-TZZwC_xsClY-unsplash.jpg Our Mission - 5. Diversity & Inclusivity Independent of class, race, disability, sexuality and gender, everyone should have a place and a voice at UM. This must be reflected in the way UM conducts itself towards its students and staff. For example, university services such as the UM Guesthouse should be affordable for everyone. Gender balance should be strived for university wide. People with a disability should be supported on an individual basis that fits their needs.

I’m Tho — a second-year Global Studies student from Vietnam. I’ve had the opportunity to be a member of FASoS Faculty Council this year and would love to be able to continue representing the voices of my fellow students in the coming one. :) As a student representative, I want to raise awareness on existing essential resources, such as mental health services. I also aim to ensure that international students can have a soft landing into their student life in Maastricht as well as feeling welcome and included throughout their study. My plan to achieve these goals is to continue working on current initiatives to introduce workshops and events that suit the needs and interests of FASoS students. If you have any idea or suggestion, don’t hesitate to have a chat with me in the hallway or at Bandito’s! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/3d27a5de-c6cf-400e-8fa0-3dda994a2dba/Sonora_Ward_Portrait-Picture+.jpg FC KANdidates FASOS 2024 - Sonora Ward Hi there! I’m Sonora, a second year Global Studies student dedicated to climate and social justice. This past year as a faculty councilor I have pushed for increased resources and support for internationals, adding an evacuation chair in 76, and organized a workshop to address harmful behavior in PBL. I hope to have the opportunity to continue these projects and more! I hope to have the opportunity to continue to contribute to a more equitable, sustainable and inclusive learning environment for my fellow students. I aim to expand support for international students, improve accessibility of the faculties, implement training/workshops to create safer learning environments and organize community building activities centered on ecology and mental health :) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/9a3e56bb-5252-4efe-a4dc-e61e4fcd4c3f/kan+photo+elections.jpg FC KANdidates FASOS 2024 - Srna Todorova Hey :) I’m Srna, a second-year Global Studies student.

Besides, I passionately commit for a closer international community of students in Maastricht that is aware of their role in promoting openness, sustainability and constructive problem resolution. A key goal of mine in the next year is therefore to enhance communication across faculties and collectively push for better well-being and more ecological awareness at our Faculties.

Likewise, I’m also concerned with the issue of economic obstacles leading to inequality in academic opportunities, and fundamentally believe universities should never prioritise profits at the cost of (student) well-being. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/d2e28aab-cce4-4154-8b3d-d4dab1109aaa/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-02+at+12.37.36_e13d9218.jpg https://www.kanmaastricht.org/faculty-council-2024-sbe daily 0.75 2024-04-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/7aef6ada-a949-4c5a-94a3-0d790968d9cf/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.03_4daff103.jpg FC KANdidates SBE 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/417a4d1a-3a8f-4a9b-9829-d765acf68de7/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.03_8b0e8e73.jpg FC KANdidates SBE 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/8f5e807c-c7cc-41ff-8eb7-fbdd622f5733/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.02_603316ab.jpg FC KANdidates SBE 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/45846294-ce48-4a00-b810-e4ee6ab26ad8/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.02_a57d2375.jpg FC KANdidates SBE 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/22fcb4aa-f141-4ec7-b68d-5dfd8f77bf85/18+Kan+Party+Fac.+Councel+SBE.DSCF2253+kopie.jpg FC KANdidates SBE 2024 - Alina Timoșenco Hello, SBE!

I’ve been on the KAN board for a few months, besides politics I love climbing and singing, and I spend most of my free time trying to catch as much Dutch sunlight as possible. I have been advocating for climate justice for the last five years and I’d love to introduce this in the curricula, I believe the university should be a space for students and staff to develop critical thinking and skills to make an impact in the world. Don’t hesitate to stop me in the halls for a chat! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/48e612d3-fe91-468a-8208-579f7ed3d15a/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-20+at+23.36.13_4e5b1d5c.jpg FC KANdidates LAW 2024 - Athanassios Pantazis Hi, I'm Thanos, an ELS student. I have a strong interest in politics and some experience promoting the interests of my fellow peers as a representative during my time at the University of Athens, Greece. In terms of academics, my main interests lie in advocating for human rights and positive peace. Besides that, I love cinema. I truly believe that combining our passions and aiming for a better future is entirely possible when we realize how powerful each one of us is. I can't wait to meet everyone because only collectively can we bring about the change we want. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/d2e28aab-cce4-4154-8b3d-d4dab1109aaa/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-02+at+12.37.36_e13d9218.jpg https://www.kanmaastricht.org/faculty-council-2024-fpn daily 0.75 2024-04-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/7aef6ada-a949-4c5a-94a3-0d790968d9cf/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.03_4daff103.jpg FC KANdidates FPN 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/417a4d1a-3a8f-4a9b-9829-d765acf68de7/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.03_8b0e8e73.jpg FC KANdidates FPN 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/8f5e807c-c7cc-41ff-8eb7-fbdd622f5733/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.02_603316ab.jpg FC KANdidates FPN 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/45846294-ce48-4a00-b810-e4ee6ab26ad8/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-03+at+11.49.02_a57d2375.jpg FC KANdidates FPN 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/a0a9775a-3b4b-4354-836a-2be743199b48/8+Kan+FPN.DSCF2203+kopie.jpg FC KANdidates FPN 2024 - Iris Joon Hi! I’m Iris, a second year psychology student at FPN. I was born in The Netherlands, but have a family background from all over Europe. I have noticed that many of my peers, both Dutch and international, don’t feel as welcome or cared for as they could at our university. I’ve been a member of the faculty council in the past year, working on creating an environment in which everyone feels at home and to create a sense of community. So far I’ve aimed to do so through activities such as hosting an art gallery or creating plans to get more plants in our buildings. I want to make sure you feel heard, so please don’t hesitate to stop me for a chat if you see me walking around FPN or sitting in the student council room! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/fbf03b79-1a33-499d-80b2-8145e2a612e9/f8a064f8-0a70-4ed6-b4ca-3d102f2361df.jpg FC KANdidates FPN 2024 - Sofia Jimenez Hey! I’m Sofia, a second year student at FPN and president of the FPN Green Team. I am very passionate about sustainability, in my free time I enjoy spending time outdoors, baking, being active and being with friends. I hope to spread awareness on climate change and sustainability, and its implementation in our daily life, and career course you choose. With KAN I hope to implement small environmentally friendly and sustainable changes to the faculty, and hopefully university wide to create an impact in the future. If you have any suggestions that you want to implement, feel free to contact me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc3bc512bbd7406581840e6/d2e28aab-cce4-4154-8b3d-d4dab1109aaa/WhatsApp+Image+2024-04-02+at+12.37.36_e13d9218.jpg
