HSD’s position
“Hochschule Düsseldorf – University of Applied Sciences strongly condemns Russia’s war of aggression on Ukraine. We are concerned about the lives of all Ukrainian citizens. As a university, we are particularly concerned about teaching staff, researchers and students in Ukraine and from Ukraine. We would like to express our solidarity with all people in and from Ukraine as well as the people in Russia who oppose the war.”
(Extract from the HSD Board of Management’s position paper of 3 March 2022)
