Bielefeld University is part of the NEOLAiA network, an association of nine young, dynamically developing higher education institutions in various European regions beyond the metropolises. With a regional focus, NEOLAiA aims to create an open and inclusive educational and social environment that sponsors equity at the university and in European society as a whole.
Bielefeld University leads new network within NEOLAIA
How can diversity and inclusion be promoted and practised at universities and in the workplace? Dr Amelie Labusch, Chelsea Wahner and Silvia Burkhardt from Workpackage 3 Diversity and Inclusion, led by Professor Dr Michaela Vogt, presented answers to these questions at the first Bielefeld Innovation Festival and discussed them with the festival community.
For the second time, the NEOLAiA Alliance will participate in Europe’s largest higher education internationalization conference: EAIE 2025 in Gothenburg.
Bielefeld University’s German Summer Courses bring together students from around the globe – including members of the NEOLAiA Alliance.
Within the Alliance, Bielefeld University coordinates the topic area "Inclusion and Diversity" and thus Work Package 3 "Diversity & Inclusion". The heads of the work package are Professor Dr Michaela Vogt and Dr Amelie Labusch.
