The one-on-one counseling sessions regarding racism are conducted by Eden Abrehet (she/her), psychological counselor and trainer for empowerment and anti-discrimination. Eden as an external consultant offers you to talk about racist incidents or stresses due to racist discrimination in the university context.
She creates a space for you to reflect on your experiences and supports you in the development of suitable individual strategies and options for action. She also develops future measures for the University of Bonn. Appointments can be made by email and will take place online for now. All emails are read only by Eden and, just like the consultations, are subject to confidentiality. This means no information will be shared with others without the student's consent.
The counselling is offered by the Equal Opportunity and Diversity Unit in consultation with the BIPoC Unit.
