"You Belong Here" – Diversity Day 2024

Our Slogan

We have all felt "wrong" at some point in our lives: in a place, in a group or on a topic. Based on this experience, we want to make it clear: when people enter our university, they are welcome.
With all their individuality and with all their abilities, regardless of origin, sexuality, disability, age, body shape or ethnicity.

Our Programme

May 28, 2024 - Presentation of the results of the diversity survey

The Department for Equality and Diversity is publishing the results of the university-wide diversity survey, which was conducted at HHN in January 2024, for the first time. The results provide insights into the composition of the members of our university and their perception of diversity-related aspects of the learning and working environment.

June 03-06, 2024 - Diversity Action Week at HHN, focus on the 2024 European elections

The first day of action took place on June 3 at the Künzelsau campus, followed by two more at the Bildungscampus and the Sontheim campus on June 4 and 6. Our various hands-on stations invited people to talk and exchange ideas: a hidden object picture on conspiracy myths, a world map to immortalize your own heartland or painting posters for the upcoming Heilbronn CSD. This year, the focus was on the European elections: With excerpts from the Wahl- & Sozial-O-Mat and extensive information material, the achievements of the EU in the areas of science, education and diversity were highlighted in order to motivate students to participate in the elections.

As part of the campaign days, the poster exhibition "Female Scientists at HHN" was also opened in the N building of the Bildungscampus and the gender equality officer, in cooperation with the equal opportunities officer, invited to a cinema evening.
