Family & gender equality

At JLU, the Central Women's and Equal Opportunities Officer, the decentralised Women's and Equal Opportunities Officers in all departments, centres and facilities of JLU, as well as the Staff Office for Equal Opportunities are available as contact persons for questions regarding family and gender equality.

If you would like confidential advice on this topic from the Central Women's and Equal Opportunities Officer, you can find more information here. Of course, you are also welcome to contact the PCMO. We will be pleased to advise you or connect you with the relevant office.

There are numerous support measures at JLU with the aim of promoting, strengthening and supporting equal opportunities both individually and structurally. You can find detailed information on the page of the Office for Equal Opportunities.

The Network Family and Career - an alliance of the four Graduate Centres GGK/GCSC, GGL, GGN and GGS, the International Office and the Career Service of JLU as well as the Research Campus Mittelhessen - regularly organises workshops, brown bag sessions and other events every semester that address the topic of balancing family responsibilities, such as caring for children and relatives in need of care, and an academic career.
