The Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology at @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social needs our solidarity. Planned budget cuts by the city and university leadership threaten the vital, critical work coming out of this space. Let’s not let it go quiet. #SaveBerlinAnthropology

The Ethnological Museum Berlin has issued a press statement in support of retaining all professorships in social and cultural anthropology at Freie Universitität Berlin. This is also essential for the future of ethnological museums in Germany ⬇️

Gestern protestierten unsere Studierenden bei einer Sitzung des akad. Senats gegen die Kürzungspläne der FU Berlin, die unser Institut für Sozial- und Kulturanthropologie unverhältnismäßig hart treffen würden. Vielen Dank an alle, die sich solidarisiert haben. It means a lot! 💜✊ (Photo: U. Probst)
