Hilde Buimer

Our dear Hilde Buimer, along with her children Lise and Steven, tragically lost their lives in an accident. We still can't wrap our heads around it, don't want to believe it, and keep hoping that tomorrow Hilde will just stroll into the office with her usual bright smile. Hilde was more than just a colleague; she was a beacon of warmth and cheerfulness, always there for everyone around her. With her big heart, she remained optimistic and positive, even in the face of life's challenges. At The Lighthouse, she was the heart and soul, always ready for a chat, knitting our team together and spreading her positivity throughout the university. Without her, we feel lost and defeated.

About The Lighthouse

At The Lighthouse, we provide a diverse range of activities including lectures, discussions, workshops, exhibitions, films, and documentaries. These activities aim to stimulate critical thinking and foster dialogue among our students and staff, addressing societal and political challenges, as well as exploring the world and the future. This strongly resonates with our institution's commitment to global citizenship, encouraging students to expand their horizons, connect with individuals from different backgrounds, and cultivate empathy.

We prioritize organizing these activities in partnership with students, lecturers, and researchers. We also collaborate with external organizations to host events. The Lighthouse events are held on and around the main hall of the campus at Johanna Westerdijkplein. All events are free for university students and staff, and we extend a warm welcome to external visitors as well.
