Teacher Education & Diversity

Training that is critical of discrimination and awareness raising among students undertaking teaching degrees are to be understood as a key moment in democracy-building processes because the classroom is just as diverse as society: classrooms and schools occupy a very special place in young adolescents’ world of experience, as this is where they are educated for both their personal and professional future.

To make the teaching and learning environment as inclusive and sensitive towards discrimination as possible, not only the integration of heterogeneous knowledge and learning levels is elementary for good teaching but also familiarity with forms of discrimination.


The Equal Opportunities Office offers individual concepts and workshops specifically for teacher education to help prospective teachers in their handling of diversity and anti-discrimination and to create an inclusive classroom where they are encouraged to facilitate equitable social participation by offsetting inequalities and different preconditions.
