Equality / Equity

ArtEZ Studium Generale organizes different projects that advocate for equality at every level and social justice for all people. In this file you will find projects on feminism, emancipation, justice and activism.

Equality is about ensuring that every individual has an equal opportunity to make the most of their lives and talents. It recognises that certain groups of people with protected characteristics such as race, disability, sex and sexual orientation experience discrimination. In our projects we make a case for intersectionality as a tool for analysis, for emancipation and against oppression, a term which refers to the complex interplay and overlap of axes of identity such as race, class and gender. Art can make us aware of the identity of ourselves and of the other and of the power differences that result from it and the underlying, structural mechanisms of exclusion.
