Thnx dear @KGFerrier for connecting President @vinsub |@UTwente, Rectors Magnificus @ppverbeek|@UvA_Amsterdam & Dr Jeroen JG Geurts @VUamsterdam in a privileged conversation. Enthused at 🇳🇱universities' readiness to engage with peers in Global South (e.g. #Bangladesh) to inquire into complex societal questions and generate scientific solutions, in 'shared interests'. In a connected world, where we enjoy abundance of innovation|solutions in global North, "solving complex problems also require #KNOWLEDGE equity". So often, solutions have to go beyond #technology aspects. It's time to unlock learning to meet aspirations of #youth, everywhere, in every possible way. Applaud all for recognizing need for "global exchange of ideas" where #students can be exposed to diverse social|cultural contexts, towards building "a generation with global sense of responsibility". To "work together on knowledge generation" anew, beyond conventional Univ. to Univ. collaboration. "Beyond who gains more or what". Rather in the spirit of shaping a 'Bazaar for ideation/knowledge', to celebrate our (collective) 'creative diversity', together. @MinBZ @unesco #Netherlands
