Funds will be granted for the employment of a teaching substitute or a research assistant.Eligible for application are female postdoctoral researchers and junior professors, with at least one child up to the age of 12 years resp. 6th grade or younger or with care responsibilities.

More information about our body of work on gender-related themes is accessible here. The call is also available in german language here.
