Content 
The Fair Practice module is an in-depth series of lessons that addresses the theme 'fair labour market' for 3rd and 4th year students. This is done on the basis of the lessons 'fair chain', 'fair pay', 'fair share', 'fair time' and 'fair value'. Students of the Dance and Theatre programmes work together in the module. A safe working environment is created in which students question each other on complex subjects: How do you build an honest working practice? How do you stand up for yourself and others in business? How do you relate to work situations in which the other person has more power than you and acts across borders? How do you incorporate inclusion and diversity in your work practice? How do you keep yourself mentally healthy in a complex field in which saying 'no' often doesn't feel like an option? How do we make it clearer what we are worth without being defensive? The Fair Practice module does not aim to come up with definitive answers, but teaches the student from practical grips and insights how to come up with your own vision. 
to act and relate to this world.
