Misiedjan teaches at the University of Utrecht (UU) about among others human rights in combination with environmental law.

Every Thursday evening, one of our Detour Guides (formerly known as tour guides) takes you on a free Detour through one of the exhibitions in Het Nieuwe Instituut. Experience design, digital culture and architecture from your guide's perspective. For example, one Detour ends in a joint choreography and you design for insects in another.

In order to participate, gather at the reception desk at 6.55pm and inform staff that you would like to join. No registration needed.

  • 8-9.30pm
    An Activist Soundtrack of the City
