Diversity Policies at Goethe University

Goethe University's objective is to establish a diversity-oriented organisational structure and culture that offers all its members and affiliates equal opportunities, irrespective of their origin and life situation, and counteracts discrimination. To this end, Goethe University has continuously developed its diversity policies since 2011. The term “diversity policies" underscores that Goethe University understands the recognition of diversity as a cross-cutting task which affects all areas of university development and governance: teaching, studies, research and administration. The diversity work at Goethe University focuses on diversity-sensitive shaping of structures and processes, promoting diverse talents in studies and science, implementing comprehensive anti-discrimination work, empowerment offers and measures to raise awareness.
