Events in context of the International Day against Homophobia, Biophobia, Interphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT)
On 17.05. 2022, the International Day against Homophobia, Bi-, Inter- and Transphobia, the TU Dresden stands in solidarity with the victims of this form of violence. At 11:30 a.m., the Progressive Flag will be hoisted in front of the rector's office and the HSZ in the presence of State Secretary Märtens and the Prorector for University Culture, Prof. Dr. Böhm.
The TU Dresden thus sets a visible sign for the appreciation of gender and sexual diversity.
As part of the IDAHOBIT week, we want to ensure queer visibility, also in and through academia.
That's why we asked ourselves: what research on queer topics is actually being done at our university?
In a series of short presentations, students and academics from our university present their research on queer topics. This includes, for example, health of queer people, history of queerness, queer theory, queer art, queering, queerness in AI, but also all research by and for queer people.
So queer research has incredible potential to be diverse and can be in any discipline.

When? 12.05.2022 14.50 hrs.

We would like to make our events as accessible as possible. Please give us feedback in case of further needs.
In order to offer queer people at the TUD adequate support in the event of incidents of harassment, discrimination and violence, and at the same time to reflect on one's own attitude to gender diversity in one's own counselling context, a digital, interactive workshop on counselling in the context of gender diversity is being introduced.
We were able to win Sabine Grimm, coach, supervisor and staff member in the project "Queer through Saxony" of Gerede e.V. for this.
Basic contents of the introductory workshop:
- Gender diversity (dimensions, terms, contexts).
- Life and conflict situations of trans people
- Gender diversity as a challenge for counsellors
- Case work
The workshop will take place on 31.05.2022 from 8.30 am - 11.30 am with a maximum of 12 participants.
If you already have specific questions about the context, please report them back to us.
We would also like to make the event as barrier-free as possible, so please feel free to let us know of any needs you may have.

Make-up, especially worn by women and non-binary people, is often seen as a subjugation to vested sexist ideals of beauty.
Make up has a long feminsitic tradition like the red lipstick of the suffragettes or make up for femme persons of the queer community.
In this digital workshop, on the one hand, these queer feminist traditions will be explained, a critical examination of one's own make-up practices and a practical exercise with make-up will take place.
The speaker:in Katharina Klappheck is a political scientist:in and activist:in at the Gunda Werner Institute, working on artificial intelligence, queer politics and disability.
When: 18.05.2022 from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.
