As a lecturer, you can help to shape a university free of discrimination and a teaching practice that pays attention to gender and diversity – but you do not bear sole responsibility. You can acknowledge and expand your options for action. But you shouldn’t be left alone to confront this task. Advisory services at Berlin universities and external institutions are listed in the Resources section.

To create resources that you need but do not exist yet, you and your department colleagues can request them and team up. Potential resources could include forums for people to discuss their experiences and challenges and give their colleagues constructive, well-informed feedback that is conscious of gender and diversity.
