Addressing Discrimination in Academia

Workshop/Training | Eileen Schwanold | 23 October 2025, 1:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. | room tba | Coordination and research management / Education / PHGS / Postdoc

"Do you feel safe here?": Addressing Discrimination in Academia 

Discrimination and microaggressions undermine truly inclusive team environments in academia and essentially create an unsafe work setting for many. In this workshop, we will learn how to recognize, prevent, and respond effectively to discrimination. Discover how early-career researchers can contribute to fostering a culture of respect, helping to create a safer and more welcoming environment within their teams. This workshop is open to everyone - whether you have experienced discrimination yourself or are an ally interested in actively addressing the issue. Join us to help tackle discrimination in academia!

Trainer: Eileen Schwanold

Date: 23rd October 2025

Time: 13.30-15:30 Uhr
