    Dinner for Ukrainian, Russian and Belarussian students

    On Tuesday, the Student Welfare team and Centre of International Affairs hosted a dinner for Ukrainian, Russian and Belarussian students and staff members.

    About 30 students joined the dinner and had a chance to ask practical questions and talk amongst each other.

    Ron Bormans, the President of the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences joined yesterday's dinner to show his sympathy and solidarity. “It’s a pity what’s going on in the world, it’s shocking. Please do remember that it’s not individual students from Russia or Belarus who started the war, it’s the government.” During the dinner, he spoke to many students and was impressed by the stories and emotions.

    The Student Welfare team and Student Counsellors are here to support and guide students financially, mentally and/or legally. Take a look at this page for an overview of RUAS resources. The team is currently working on other events to help students and staff get through this difficult time.
