One of the core principles of DEN is to establish a strong connection between students at the University of Westminster and the local community. Members of DEN actively participate in University initiatives, gaining a comprehensive understanding of events such as Black History Month, LGBT History Month, Interfaith and Secularism workshops, and more. DEN has successfully organised events like “Challenging Prejudices, Celebrating Diversity” and “World in Westminster.” The network empowers students to collaborate with other student societies and departments, enabling them to lead projects that have a positive impact on the Westminster community.
