Diversity Days 2017
4th Diversity days from 06.-10. of November 2018 at the TU Dresden
At TU Dresden, Diversity Days are held annually. The topic of this year's Diversity Days is: "Gender Diversity". Gender diversity means addressing all genders, also and particularly beyond the classification into the binary gender categories male / female. This topic is becoming more and more relevant to society, and also to Technische Universität Dresden. The aim of the Diversity Days 2017 at TU Dresden is to demonstrate the range of gender identities and - by emphasising and respecting individual differences in gender-specific varieties and sexual orientations - to avoid discrimination and allow a climate of tolerance in dealing with one another. A multitude of barrier-free event formats within the Diversity Days aim at sensitising TU Dresden students, employees and guests for this topic. The events take place in cooperation with the TUD GenderConceptGroup, the *sowieso* Frauen für Frauen e.V. Kaddi Cutz and Urbanite - das Stadtmagazin für Dresden.
