Preliminary, it can be concluded that a lot is already been done at the University of Bonn to improve educational equity. However, the topic should be focused on even more to reach a higher degree of educational equity.
A central result of the workshop discussions was the importance of improved information practice in different areas of university life. These include, for example, the consultation on different financing possibilities, the advertising of support offers and the improved provision of English information to make the onboarding of university members from abroad easier.
Besides, it became clear that, among others, first generation academics would profit from improved access to the university as well as to mentoring schemes or an increased exchange with role models.
The results of the workshop discussions will be summarized and will be used for further project planning and strategy development, for example for the drafting of the diversity strategy of the University of Bonn.
