This training course aims to provide teaching staff with important basic information on sexualized discrimination and violence, highlight options for action, and offer sufficient opportunity for exchange and to practice conversation situations with those affected and, if necessary, those accused.

The session provides basic knowledge about the General Equal Treatment Act and the various acts that fall under sexualized discrimination and violence. In addition to raising awareness of the topic, a compact legal framework and options for action are presented so that professors, supervisors, and group leaders can react appropriately.

Doubts about your studies? Use them as an opportunity! Too much social pressure? Chosen the wrong degree program? Overwhelmed or even expelled from the University? Having doubts about one’s studies has become a widespread phenomenon. This is demonstrated once a year at the Fuck Up Stories – Student Edition (FUS), where courageous speakers talk about their failure to succeed at university, their shattered career plans and what they did next. The event will take place on the Poppelsdorf campus as part of the CAMPUS Garden.

Questions of accessibility are not only of practical relevance. Rather, they are central concepts for understanding society in general and human-technology-world relationships in particular. Despite this fundamental social significance, however, this topic has not yet appeared to be of central importance in the humanities and social sciences. The lecture series ‘Access - Transdisciplinary Perspectives on Accessibility’ organised by the Forum Internationale Wissenschaft Bonn (FIW) approaches the multi-layered research field of access(ibility) from various perspectives and aims to contribute to establishing accessibility as a basic transdisciplinary concept.
