Bauhaus-Universität Weimar: Equal Opportunity Office

Equality and Diversity During the Corona Crisis

-Support and advising, information, statements-

Corona affects all of us - equally?

Living circumstances, age, gender, health, background, financial, family and social circumstances
--all of these factors influence the extent to which the current situation affects each of us.

This also rings true at our university. The members of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar have been affected to varying degrees by the pandemic and the associated restrictions, changes, and consequences.

Equality and diversity, equal opportunities and anti-discrimination measures are particularly important right now.

These aspects must be taken into consideration with the modifications in the university working day and the organisation of the summer semester.

Here, we have compiled relevant information regarding equality and diversity. The (non-exhaustive) list of links provides access to more detailed information, policy reports from various parties, and support and counselling services for various groups.

We are making every effort to update and increase the information we provide. We welcome any comments or suggestions as well as reports on your personal situation during these challenging times.

The Equal Opportunity Office and Diversity Department will continue to be available to you:

via telephone: 03643-584242, daily from 8:30 - 11:30 am
via e-mail: gleichstellungsbuero[at]uni-weimar.de

We are also happy to arrange appointments for private telephone conversations outside of the specified office hours.
