Informationsveranstaltung Anlaufstellen bei sexualisierter Gewalt

Together with the Dean's Office of Faculty for Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, femTUme - the women's network of the Faculty of MWBW - organised the information event contact points in case of sexualised violence on 31.05.2023.
The event was aimed at students and employees of the Faculty of MWBW and provides information about internal TU contact points for those directly affected by sexual harassment, and potential confidants to whom those affected can turn (e.g. supervisors, group leaders, course lecturers).

The following speakers provided information about the topic and contact points and were available for questions afterwards:
Christian Bauer – Dean's Office of Faculty for Mechanical and Industrial Engineering
Kerstin Schneider-Hornstein – Works Council
Felix Birkelbach – Committee on Equal Treatment at TU Wien (AKG)
Sarah Recheis – HTU Department for equal treatment and women’s support

We thank all speakers for the exchange and their commitment.
Thank you to the audience for coming to face this difficult issue and to equip themselves with the knowledge on how to deal with such a situation as a person affected or as a confidant.
