Respekt! Diversity Day

Respekt! Diversity Day
The Respekt! Diversity Day provides an opportunity once a calendar year to raise awareness of diversity and inclusion within the university community.
Respekt! Diversity Day Poster

The 1.5-day conference is part of the initiative "Respekt! Time for diversity, time for sustainability". It is a free event for all students and employees of H-BRS, as well as anyone else from the region who is interested in attending.

 

The aims of the Respekt! Diversity Day:

 

  • Promoting respectful interaction: We want to create an environment in which all members of the university - students, teaching staff and employees - feel valued and respected.
  • Raising awareness of discrimination: The Respekt! Diversity Day encourages people to deal with various forms of discrimination and to develop solutions to reduce prejudice and promote justice.
  • Promoting dialogue: Through workshops, lectures and discussions, we create spaces for dialogue and mutual understanding. Our aim is to overcome barriers and enrich coexistence at our university.
  • Presentation of best practices: We show how diversity is actively supported in teaching, research and campus life and present successful projects and initiatives that aim to create an inclusive university culture.

 

Events and offers: During the Respekt! Diversity Day, you can expect a varied programme of lectures, workshops, panel discussions and interactive activities. We invite all members of the university to take part, learn from each other and work together to create a respectful university environment.

You can find impressions and insights from past events in our gallery, the programmes and the news reports below.

Why Diversity Day is important: Diversity enriches our academic lives and encourages creative thinking and open and respectful communication. By engaging with different perspectives and realities of life, we learn how we can support each other and strengthen mutual recognition, appreciation, acceptance and understanding of different personalities as well as cooperation at Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences.

 

We look forward to your participation and engaging discussions that will help us better understand diversity, inclusion and sustainability!
