Information Session: CHID Prague Spring 2026 study abroad program

Learn more about the Spring 2026 CHID Prague study abroad program, "History, Memory, and Human Rights in Central Europe." The CHID Prague Program, which is one of the oldest study abroad programs at UW (since 1996), offers UW students a unique and specific study abroad opportunity not available elsewhere at UW. The CHID Prague Program is all about immersing yourself in Prague and the other great Central European cities – Vienna, Krakow, Budapest and Berlin, where we will go on 4- or 5-day trips each – in order to develop a complex understanding of the dynamic historical, cultural, and political life of Central Europe as a whole. The program itself is strongly anchored in the philosophy of CHID: it combines academically rigorous seminar-style courses, international field trips aimed at provoking personal reflection and exploration, and cultural events that transform our program into a living community. We focus on key issues that resonate well beyond Central Europe: the tragedy of the Holocaust, the nature and… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Padelford Hall (PDL).

Information Session: Spring Break 2026 CHID Netherlands, "Tolerance, Identity, and Difference in Amsterdam"

Learn more about the Spring Break 2026 CHID Netherlands program, "Tolerance, Identity, and Difference in Amsterdam."  Russell Shorto has called Amsterdam “the world’s most liberal city,” and indeed, the Netherlands is well known for its “tolerant” approaches to drug enforcement, legalized sex work, and gay rights. However, recent events have brought this self-congratulatory attitude into question. In debates over the supposed crises of immigration and multiculturalism, public commentators from across the political spectrum have argued for the limits of tolerance and the need to defend Dutch national identity against intolerant views, especially those allegedly associated with Islam. Large segments of the Dutch populace—and prominent politicians—have expressed fear, revulsion, and anger towards Dutch Muslims, whether recent immigrants or the children or grandchildren of so-called “guest workers” from Morocco and Turkey who helped power the Netherlands’s economic recovery after World War II. Following pre-dep… Event interval: Single day event. Online Meeting Link: https://washington.zoom.us/my/nickbarr?pwd=WmIzc2h1L3ljaXpDaUIxMnFpcHVRQT09. Campus room: Padelford C101.
