Anti-discrimination Services
Stralsund University of Applied Sciences is committed to provide a learn and work environment free from discrimination. Our anti-discrimination work and services contribute towards an open and tolerant campus culture, one that is characterized by mutual trust and respect.
Diversity, anti-discrimination and equal opportunities are issues relevant in most areas of university life and their realization requires a broad awareness as well as wide participation across all university bodies. The administrative department of anti-discrimination offers advice and support to departments, professors, colleagues and students.

If you are affected by structural inequality or if you experience marginalization, stigmatization or harassment on campus that you would like to address, I can offer confidential support based on your personal wishes and needs.
If you are looking for professional advice or feedback, I can offer expertise regarding anti-discrimination, equal opportunities or diversity, and can assist you with ideas on inclusive teaching or administrative services.
The anti-discrimination services can now be easily contacted online by university members using the e-HOST services. Every message will be forwarded anonymously to the anti-discrimination services only. If you wish to receive further support, you can opt to add contact details.

Anti-discrimination work aims to bring positive changes on different levels.
On an individual level, anti-discrimination means providing support and counseling services as well as empowering those affected by structural inequality.
On an institutional or organizational level, anti-discrimination aims to realize equal opportunities, secure equal participation and to protect and prevent members from being discriminiated against.
On a societal level, a culture of anti-discrimination can bring about meaningful change in various areas, e.g. law, politics, history or media.
