Prof. Dr. Roswitha Böhm – Vice-Rector University Culture and Internationalization
„Habiter le monde, c’est se concevoir comme appartenant à un espace plus large que son groupe ethnique, sa nation. C’est endosser les multiples visages de l’humanité, se sentir héritier de ses cultures plurielles.” *
(Felwine Sarr)

* "To 'inhabit' the world is to conceive of oneself as belonging to a larger space than one's ethnic group, one's nation. It means taking on the many faces of humanity, feeling like an heir to its plural cultures."
