Equal Opportunities in Geography

We are committed to promoting equal opportunities at the Faculty of Geography and Geosciences and seek solutions for gender equality and diversity issues on both individual and structural levels. Our work is therefore approached in an intersectional and inclusive manner.

For us, equal opportunities mean enabling all people to have the same access and participation in all areas of social and professional life. We reject any preferential treatment or disadvantage based on gender, geographical background, religious or political beliefs, disability, skin color, or other characteristics. This aligns with the equality principle enshrined in the German Basic Law and the strategies of the Ruhr-University Bochum in the areas of equality and diversity.
