From Student Encampment Leiden & The Hague:
"🚨STUDENTS HAVE OCCUPIED THE OLDEST UNIVERSITY BUILDING IN THE NETHERLANDS TO DEMAND AN ACADEMIC BOYCOTT NOW🚨
📢 JOIN THE SUPPORT DEMO NOW📢
📍Dr. Suleiman Haboush University (Rapenburg 73, #Leiden)Today, #LeidenUniversity holds an annual lecture to commemorate Dr. Rudolph Cleveringa, who gave a famous lecture in honor of his Jewish colleague and in protest of the Nazi occupation on November 26, 1940.
Yet, while claiming to celebrate the scholar who stood against the Nazi occupation and #genocide, Leiden University remains complicit in perpetuating ‘israel’s’ occupation and genocide - including #scholasticide - in Palestine.
Leiden University’s silence is a grave betrayal of Cleveringa’s lessons. By staying complicit genocide, occupation, and the violent denial of a people’s right to self determination, LU is exploiting and defiling Cleveringa’s legacy.
We protest today to call out Leiden University’s hypocrisy and complicity. No research project can justify working with institutions complicit in occupation and genocide.
‼️We will not leave until the Board commits to our demands: ACADEMIC BOYCOTT NOW‼️"

From Leiden / The Hague student encampment:
'WE, THE STUDENTS AND STAFF OF LEIDEN UNIVERSITY....
... are reclaiming this campus to demand an end to our university's complicity in the ongoing Israeli occupation of Palestine and the genocide in Gaza.
Our Occupation is part of the recent global student intifada.
This escalation is a result of the last years of LU making no tangible efforts to end their complicity in the occupation of Palestine and all grave human rights violations that come along with it.
OUR DEMANDS
We will remain until Leiden University meets the following demands:
1. Boycott
Commit to a full academic boycott of Zionist and Israeli institutions that are complicit in human rights violations against the Palestinian people and the occupation of their land.
2. Divest
Cease all contracts with and divest from Israeli companies and international companies/ funds, that profit from genocide, apartheid, and exploitation of the Palestinian people and their land.'

* Sustainability, Wellbiign for the futureThere is also a long list of national initiatives; If your thinking about alternatives to GDP this is a vital resource

A recent study from a Dutch team at #LeidenUniversity calculated 18 billion farmed animals die every year - discarded simply as waste.
This unfathomable number of individuals include:
-16.8 billion male chicks 🐣🚫
-402.3 million turkeys 🦃❌
-298.8 million pigs 🐷❎
-195.7 million sheep 🐑✖️
-188 million goats 🐐🙅
-74.1 million cattle 🐮🙅♂️1/6th of all animal meat produced is thrown in the trash. This shocking statistic shows the unnecessary waste of animal life, worsens our fight against #ClimateChange, and does nothing to prevent the continual suffering of animals that are still trapped in the animal agricultural industry, awaiting their untimely fate.
