UNIFY
UNIFY - Unit for Family, Diversity & Equality
is the central institution at Heidelberg University for the topics of compatibility, diversity and equality. Goals, tasks, measures and activities correspond to the legal mandate and strategic goals of the Excellence Strategy.
Vision: UNIFY aims at a cultural change at Heidelberg University towards a fair, equal and participative interaction with each other, which is reflected in all areas, strategies, selection procedures and leadership behaviour.
Our strategic goals are based on the three pillars of UNIFY:
1. reconciling study, work or science with family/care is lived in all areas of the university.
2. diversity dimensions are represented in all areas, integrated and valued free of discrimination.
3. equal proportions of women have been achieved at all qualification levels and at all management and decision-making levels.
