The DIPF aims to promote equal opportunities and gender equality, to eliminate underrepresentation of women and gender based discrimination, and to prevent future discrimination.
The Governing Board of the DIPF | Leibniz Institute for Research and Information in Education, together with all employees, is committed to actively promoting gender equality through targeted measures and equal treatment in practice. The realisation of equal opportunities is regarded as a guiding principle. Measures for the implementation of equal opportunities are laid down in the DIPF Gender Equality Plan.
The current version was drawn up together with the elected equal opportunities officers at the DIPF. It includes an analysis of the personnel structure at the institute and the identification of problem areas for the equality of employees read as female and male. From this, goals are derived and measures are formulated to achieve these goals.
