May 26th – 27th, 2025 | University of Bonn
This year’s University of Bonn Diversity Days are titled ‘Family Matters: Balance & Belonging’ and are organized in cooperation with the Office of Family Services. The event will focus on the intersections of family and academia. The Diversity Days, also supported by the Queer Network NRW, will also highlight the importance of synergies and exchange between academia and civil society organizations.
In addition to a reading and a workshop addressing the question of ‘compatibility of parenthood and academia’, a session on ‘families (of choice) and queer communities’ will broaden perspectives on family models beyond heteronormativity and will also discuss the discrimination faced by trans individuals within their families. Furthermore, a workshop on the diversity strategy and the annual network meeting will take place.
Employees of the University of Bonn may participate in the Diversity Days 2025 during their regular working hours. The Office of Family Services will provide childcare for all Diversity Days events on location.
