MA History specialisation Governance of Migration and Diversity at Leiden University

Biodiversity enables ecosystems to thrive through the synergy of functional differences among organisms. While human well-being strongly depends on biodiversity-driven ecosystem services, human actions are also at the root of current unprecedented biodiversity declines.

In dit interdisciplinaire project worden data science technieken toegepast om de interactie tussen de Universiteit en stad Leiden (Town&Gown) kwalitatief en kwantitatief zichtbaar te maken vanaf 1575. Een van de mogelijke invalshoeken voor vervolgonderzoek is diversiteit, met name vanuit de internationale…

Word een expert op het gebied van migratie- en diversiteitsrecht met een multidisciplinaire focus. Naarmate samenlevingen steeds diverser worden, bereidt dit programma je voor op het aanpakken van de juridische uitdagingen die wereldwijde migratie met zich meebrengt. Je leert het recht te begrijpen…

Open gesprekken voeren over diversiteit en inclusie is een belangrijke eerste stap op weg naar verandering. Toch kunnen zulke gesprekken emotioneel en kwetsbaar zijn, en soms ongemakkelijk om te initiëren. Het 'What’s your story?' kaartspel heeft tot doel deelnemers in staat te stellen verhalen uit…

(1) Wat zijn de institutionele factoren die van invloed zijn op de invoering en implementatie van AI? en (2) Hoe geeft AI vorm aan de uitoefening van bestuurlijke beslissingsbevoegdheid binnen publieke organisaties en hoe worden deze effecten gematigd door de keuzes op het gebied van invoering en im…

Understanding how galaxies form, interact, and evolve comes largely from comparing theory predictions with observational data. Numerical simulations of galaxies provide the most accurate approach to testing the theory, as they follow the non-linear evolution of gas and dark matter in great detail and…

1: What is the relative importance of alfa and beta biodiversity in polar ecosystems, and how does intraspecific variation influence this? 2: How can we use remote sensing to determine functional biodiversity (within communities) in polar ecosystems? 3: Temporal and spatial scales of functional biodiversity:…

Plant diversity is essential for us and our planet as it sustains the stability of our ecosystems, provides vital materials and food to us and supports many ecosystem services.

Het centrale doel van dit proefschrift is inzicht verschaffen in hoe de implementatie van een peer educator-interventie van invloed kan zijn op de houding van leerlingen tegenover LHBT-leeftijdgenoten en op de relatie tussen deze houdingen en reflectie over burgerschap.

The study of orchid flowers, fruits, and inflorescences is crucial due to the remarkable diversity of orchid species and their unique adaptations to pollinators and seed dispersers. However, our understanding of the evolution and development of these organs within the orchid family remains limited.

Bacterial chemosensory arrays are protein assemblies that are the key structural and functional component for motile bacteria to sense their internal or environmental chemical signals.

Natural resources often stretch across borders that separate modern nation states. This can create conflict and limit opportunities for regulated consumption of their goods and services, but also provide opportunities for joint multinational efforts that exceed single country capabilities.

Big Science, commonly defined as conventional science made big in three dimensions, namely organizations, machines, and politics, brings a plethora of different stakeholders together, often for a long period of time. This includes policymakers, scientists, (scientific) managers as well as local “host”…

Some examples of research questions include: What framework of circular strategies should local practitioners use? How should practitioners organize their monitoring of the circular economy activities in the region of interest? What are the main products that have the most circular potential in the…

The expanding population and economic activity are driving up global energy consumption. Simultaneously, there is an urgent need to transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources to mitigate the climate crisis, primarily caused by fossil fuel combustion.
