First point of contact for discrimination

Discrimination is everywhere. Even at the HTW. But we want to improve things with your support. Have you experienced discrimination? Have you experienced sexual violence? Have you witnessed someone being discriminated against?

Names and the course name or location of the incident are useful so that we can react quickly if necessary. However, you do not have to give us this information immediately if you still have reservations. In any case, your data will be treated confidentially! We will not take any further steps without your consent! We will also be happy to arrange a consultation appointment with you by email.

By the way, we are also there for you if you are a marginalized person with concerns. We welcome ideas and suggestions from the student body! We are also happy to support groups in the area of making discrimination visible when setting up student initiatives or your events on the topic. Just get in touch with us and we’ll see how we can support you.
