Dutch Minister of Education, Culture and Science Hosted at UCLA (September 9, 2022)
On September 9, 2022, Robbert Dijkgraaf, the Dutch Minister of Education, Culture and Science, visited the UCLA campus. This visit was part of the ongoing effort to strengthen collaborations between UCLA and Dutch universities, and co-sponsored by the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at UCLA and the Center for European and Russian Studies (CERS). The Minister and his delegation were welcomed by UCLA Executive Vice Chancellor Darnell Hunt; Vice Chancellor of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Anna Spain Bradley; and other campus leaders and faculty, including the Director of CERS, Laurie Kain Hart.
In keeping with UCLA’s mission of global reach, it was a great honor to welcome Minister Dijkgraaf and his delegation to UCLA for a rich exchange of knowledge across cultures and nations. The Minister’s deep commitment to the power of education to advance inclusive societies in which all peoples can thrive is a vision that UCLA and I share. We look forward to continued cooperation with the Minister and the government of The Netherlands in years to come.
