The event “What About Equality,” centered on the femTUme study, addressed these questions. The goal of the event was not only to highlight the findings but also to create a shared space for discussion, reflection, and further developments.
Following opening remarks by representatives from the faculty and femTUme, the study’s key findings were presented. The study examined experiences related to equality and discrimination within the faculty and was intended to serve as a basis for further discussions and actions.
In the subsequent panel discussion, representatives from the faculty, the equality office, and student government discussed the findings and their implications for everyday university life. Particular focus was placed on experiences of discrimination, structural challenges, and the question of how an inclusive academic culture can be fostered.
A central theme was that gender equality cannot be achieved through individual measures alone, but requires a cultural shift. It was emphasized that all groups must be involved: students, faculty, administrators, and staff. Topics discussed included raising awareness, improving communication about support services, and strengthening dialogue and collaboration. The importance of role models and an open culture of dialogue was also highlighted. The event made it clear that gender equality is not a completed process, but rather a shared responsibility. The findings of the femTUme study serve as an important starting point for making changes visible and developing concrete steps forward.
