The Foundation George Mosse Fund of the University of Amsterdam (Stichting George Mosse Fonds van de Universiteit van Amsterdam) is a Dutch foundation (stichting) that aims to promote gay and lesbian studies.[1] It was founded in 2001 at the University of Amsterdam, with a bequest from George Mosse's inheritance,[2] given out of appreciation for the cultural-historical education and research on homosexuality in Amsterdam.[1] The foundation is known primarily for its Mosse Lectures[3] and its QueerTalk events.[4]
