go diverse

Gender and diversity competent academic employee selection

The University of Bremen aims to reduce discrimination in employee selection processes and to increase the diversity of its academic personnel. To achieve this, leadership and decision makers require knowledge and skills in questions on gender and diversity.

The project go diverse offered trainings, consultations and information to all academic and administrative staff who carry out employee selection processes at the University of Bremen.

Critical Organisation Studies (Bourabain, 2021; de Angelis & Grüning, 2020) and Critical Diversity Research (Heitzmann und Houda, 2019)  consistently present evidence, that researchers face discrimination based on their gender, race, religion, ableism, class and /or age. Employment processes can structurally discriminate directly or indirectly without conscious attempt by their actors. Formal process management can unfortunately not solely resolve these discriminations by itself. All involved actors take responsibility. go diverse supported leadership roles and decision makers with the knowledge and reflexivity necessary to make the best possible diversity conscious employment decisions.

The project was implemented by the equal opportunity office in cooperation with the diversity management of the University of Bremen until October 2024.
