Equality and Cooperative Behavior

Our commitment

We are committed to fair and respectful cooperation in the academic world - regardless of gender or gender identity.

Our main goal is to promote equal opportunities for women and men and to reduce existing inequalities. To this end, we work at all levels of the university to identify and eliminate disadvantages.

In addition, it is important to us to create a university community based on appreciation and participation - for everyone. In close cooperation with Unify andthe Office for Equal Opportunities Heidelberg, we are committed to progressive equality.

With this in mind, the Gender Equality Plan and the Senate Directive on Cooperative Conduct were adopted in March 2025.
