Diversity committee
Diversity committee
The Diversity Committee at FAU was officially set up following a resolution passed by the Commission for Equal Opportunities in May 2019. The Committee is a cross-faculty forum with a wide variety of functionaries, status and target groups, representative bodies and stakeholders that deal with diversity-related questions, processes and action that needs to be taken in this area at FAU. It is an interdisciplinary forum for communication that not only provides opportunities for exchanging information and networking, but also initiates measures and draws up recommendations.
