Fluffy, cute, fuzzy, and cuddly – bunnies are seen as mascots for spring, a symbol for fresh life and a burst of colour. But there’s a dark side to rabbits as well as they dance within the shadows of hand puppets and plunge down beneath the ground to unite the light of the sun with the mystery of the unknown otherworld. Come join us in fascinating conversation as we explore how mythologies have employed this duality of the rabbit, from the shrubs of the undergrowth to the surface of the moon!

WITH SPECIAL GUEST Dr. Lourens Minnema

Climate debate
April 15, 19.30h

Join AiMUN for a discussion about nuclear energy and meat consumption! Three wonderful experts, namely Philipp Pattberg, VU professor Transnational Environmental Governance, Bart Verheggen, lecturer Environmental Sciences, and Matthijs Sienot, former MP for the Dutch Democrat party, will also be there to share their perspective. This way, the discussion will become truly interdisciplinary, with a policy, political, and environmental sciences lens.

We look forward to seeing you then!

[Content warning]: topics of sexual violence, harassment, rape culture, and non-consent.

Do you want to find out more about sexual, emotional, and physical consent and rape culture in Dutch (university) and AUC context?

For our feminist initiative, we are organizing a super informative and important guest lecture coming Friday at 5:30 pm with Claudia Dictus, an ex-AUC student and the chairperson of the awesome university-based, student-founded foundation Our Bodies Our Voice (OBOV). OBOV does incredible work fostering understanding for issues of consent, boundaries, sexual violence, and survivorship through workshops and guest lectures in a university context.

On the 17th of April at 11:00, we, Cuisine, will be hosting our very first mystery box brunch! How it works is that, once you sign up, we will provide you with a box (or bag) of random ingredients including one secret ingredient. This can be anything from veggies to puff pastry. Your task is to use the one secret ingredient plus as many other ingredients from this box as you can to cook a delicious brunch within 1.5 hours! Then, take a picture and post it on Instagram, tagging us @aucuisineboard. We will decide on a winner based on creativity, the number of ingredients from the box/bag used, and aesthetics. PRIZE: The winner (or winning group) will RECEIVE A DINNER ESPECIALLY cooked for you BY US! We encourage you to team up with one or two other people (please respect the coronavirus regulations) so that you can work together and have more ingredients!
