All our campuses should emanate the living campus idea, where students and colleagues can experience the full breadth of academic life. Each campus should also become an open house (and garden!), offering them a place to work and a warm place to meet, connect, or organise a study day, …

Sports, physical exercise during long meeting or class days, eating healthy… these are all tools that can make our days at KU Leuven more pleasant and have a positive impact on our health. Quite rightly, students and colleagues on all campuses are asking for easy access to sports infrastructure, for an organisational culture in which meetings are not long sitting marathons, for tasty, healthy and affordable food in the university restaurants and other meeting places. Through KU Leuven Healthy we will explore how we can promote and support more widely a healthy lifestyle, more exercise and healthy food for everyone’s well-being.

Together, we make KU Leuven

Thank you very much for the vote of confidence you have placed in me during what has already been an intense campaign. Now we are steaming ahead to the final round of voting! Because if you really want to bring a breath of fresh air to the university, you need to know exactly what is going on, what the needs are and how we can realistically address them. In short, you need to know KU Leuven inside out so that we can move forward together and leave no one behind. That’s why I am keen to continue the dialogue with you, because yes, together, we make KU Leuven.
