On 13 August 2019, seven employees from science, administration and technology at TU Dortmund University founded a new TU Dortmund University network called "Queer* Peers TU - The Network of Queer* Employees at TU Dortmund University".

The network is aimed at all TU Dortmund employees who want to gather under the term "queer" and feel that the term means them.

The network sees its tasks in

• to increase the visibility of queer* employees at the TU Dortmund and to offer an exchange platform for them
• to offer peer support and advice for queer* employees at TU Dortmund University
• to have an impact on the TU with queer* expertise, to advise organisational units or individuals as needed and to raise awareness for the concerns of queer* people
• to coordinate and, if necessary, cooperate with other queer* actors within and outside the TU Dortmund.

Diversity management at TU Dortmund University includes actively shaping diversity and proactively combating discrimination. The Equal Opportunities, Family and Diversity Office reinforces the culture of diversity at TU Dortmund University. It develops, implements and supports strategies, instruments and measures to improve equal opportunities and family friendliness. Therefore, the Office of Equal Opportunities and Diversity will take over the coordination of the network.

The next meetings will take place via video conference.

Thursday 11 February 2021

An email to Ute Zimmermann or a call to 0231-755 6466 will suffice.
