Equal Opportunity, Gender Equality and Diversity

Equal Opportunity in FOR 5522

The members of FOR 5522 are committed to creating and fostering a diverse and inclusive environment for the participation of its members and guests. We comprehend equal opportunity broadly, encompassing gender diversity, family support, and the diverse cultural backgrounds of our international group and research field.

Some of our key measures include:

Equal opportunity awareness sessions at our main events with external experts
Support for female and other underrepresented groups of researchers (e.g., networking, mentoring)
Support for longer scientific visits of female researchers
Childcare support for researchers with small children at our scientific events
Joint events with other initiatives

Equal opportunity in FOR 5522 is coordinated by Prof. Monika Aidelsburger, MPQ / LMU.
