!! Complaint Office in cases of discrimination harassment, violence !!
At TU Dresden, we foster respectful and appreciative interaction with one another in a variety of ways on a daily basis. Consequently, TU Dresden condemns any form of (sexualized) harassment, discrimination and violence. For this reason, the complaints office was founded.

What we are currently working on
- We supervise ongoing recruitment procedures and contribute to the implementation of transparency and equality in these procedures. Upcoming appointment procedures are: Use of Plants, Fundamentals of Design, Technical Building Equipment and Climate-friendly Building.
- The Department of Building and Environment will receive a new equality concept in which we will anchor concrete goals and approaches for improving equality and diversity in our department.
- Part of the equality concept will also be an intensification of data collection in order to be able to evaluate the effects of measures. A first survey, which is directed at doctoral students, will record their situation.
- We are working on a project proposal to improve the publication and networking activities of female PhD candidates at the TUD (FEM-PAC).
- We are the contact for individual issues of equality and diversity at the Faculty of Architecture for students and staff of the TUD.
