Taskforce: Diversity and Inclusion

We embrace diversity and inclusiveness. We aim to provide a respectful and harmonious environment for all our students, teachers and staff; this lies within our ambition and vision to educate a diverse community of game changers. Our Diversity & Inclusion taskforce members created guidelines for our AMFI community, taking into account the voices of students and events of the past. These guidelines can be divided in five major themes; safe space, inclusion, communication, feedback, education.  Click here to view them all: https://amfi.nl/storage/files/AMFI_DiversityInclusion_Guidelines.pdf

Dirty Laundry

AMFI houses its own student-led activist collective, called Dirty Laundry - a group of students fed up with the industry they are about to enter, and restless for change! The collective was founded in 2016 on the belief that students, as the next generation of fashion professionals, have a critical role to play in shaping the future of the fashion industry.

Composed of 8 young fashion activists from all over the world, Dirty Laundry campaigns for meaningful change within the curriculum and aims to inspire all in education to be change-makers. The team renews yearly in September and students are welcome to apply via our contact address.
