From theory to practice.
Diversity & Inclusion often leads to the question: but how to put it in practice? ECHO guides organizations in moving from awareness to meaningful action—both in policy and in practice.
With a keen eye for context, we design approaches that fit the needs of each situation: from engaging interactive learning to strategic advice at the institutional level.
Cultural diversity as our starting point.
We use cultural diversity as a starting point to spark the important, sometimes uncomfortable conversations about racism and discrimination. Through an intersectional lens, we connect different dimensions of diversity, creating a deeper understanding of our layered identity and experiences.


The power of the ECHO community.
ECHO collaborates with a strong (inter)national network of students and professionals who enhance our projects as knowledge partners. At the same time, we invest in their growth and visibility—through initiatives like the ECHO Award and the Critical Friends program—building sustainable, mutually beneficial partnerships.
