Working Group for Equal Treatment Issues (Arbeitskreis für Gleichbehandlungsfragen = AKGl)

The primary task of the AKGl is to counteract discrimination based on gender.

The AKGl is also responsible for discrimination issues based on ethnicity, relgion or belief, sexual orientation or age.

If you experience such discrimination you can contact the AKGl or the office of the working group. The AKGl provides a safe space for your concerns and they will be treated confidentially. We offer active support and assistance. We will only take the steps that you are prepared to take of your own accord. In agreement with you, we will then actively take action against the discrimination.

The AKGl will as well give advice and support if you experience bullying besides the named discriminations.

Not least the AKGl is a point of contact for those affected by sexual harassment.
