Decolonizing the Curriculum in Europe

Decolonizing the Curriculum in Europe
Wednesday, January 19, 2022

Reckoning with the past in Europe often means reckoning with a legacy of colonialism. In the U.S. and Europe, student demands to remove statues celebrating Civil War generals or colonialists from the campus have been followed by a broader call to systematically decolonize the entire curriculum. But what does this mean? How have European universities responded? And what can European and American institutions learn from each other as we all continue to work to implement Justice, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in our classrooms and co-curricular programs?

Free Movement in the Time of COVID: The Economics and Ethics of Digital Vaccine Passports

Free Movement in the Time of COVID: The Economics and Ethics of Digital Vaccine Passports
Tuesday, October 19, 2021

As Europe seeks to recover from the impacts of COVID-19, European leaders have implemented digital health passes and vaccine passports. These measures have met comparatively little resistance compared to the U.S., but critics warn of ethical and legal concerns, including data privacy. What does free movement mean in the time of COVID? How might we understand differences in public health policy with regards to vaccine mandates and vaccine passports across Europe and how does that compare to the U.S.?
