We wrapped up with drinks and good conversations at Café X TU Delft, connecting with fellow alumni and reflecting on the visit.

Thanks to everyone who joined, more events coming soon! ✨

On April 8th, the Positive Impact Circle hosted an intimate French cooking workshop in collaboration with the Erasmus Sustainability Hub.

The workshop was fully vegan and led by the Erasmus Sustainability Hub team, who guided us through a hands-on evening exploring how creative and flavourful plant-based French cuisine can be.

Together we prepared and enjoyed a three-course meal, including a fresh salad, savoury quiche and chocolate mousse, all completely plant-based and made from scratch.

It was an evening full of cooking, learning and sharing a great meal together 🍽️

A big thank you to everyone who joined and to the Erasmus Sustainability Hub for the collaboration 🤝

We’re looking forward to more events like this across different circles within the community. Stay tuned for what’s next

We are excited to introduce Luc, our new Community & Engagement Officer at the Erasmus Alumni Club! 💚

Luc studies Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology and previously completed his bachelor’s in European Studies. With his interdisciplinary background, he brings a broad and socially engaged perspective to the team, with a strong interest in community-building.

🗨 “I think it is important to create spaces where people can connect, exchange ideas, and
learn from each other, that is what makes a community truly valuable.”

Outside of his studies, Luc enjoys reading and going for walks while listening to podcasts or music. 🎧📚

Welcome to the Club, Luc! 🤝
