Participation

Participation is understood as the involvement of individuals in an organization, social group, or society in decision-making processes, with the aim of influencing decision-making (cf. University of Duisburg-Essen).

FAU’s mission for equal opportunities therefore also covers facilitating participation by breaking down barriers and preventing discrimination. This is aimed at ensuring that as many people as possible are able to participate in and actively shape university life. Further information is available under Equal opportunities at FAU.
