Gender Equality

The Max-Planck-Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology has committed itself to promote excellence, creativity and passion of its employees regardless of gender, nationality, religion, disability, age, cultural origin and sexual identity.

Our equal opportunities work focusses on the compatibility of work and family as well as the support of female researchers. For us, equality means more than just the formal equal treatment of the sexes. Our goal is to recognize the different living conditions, opportunities and needs of all employees and to offer individual solutions for optimal professional development.

Our responsibilities:

• Dr. Anke Treuner-Lange
  Monitoring & Evaluation
• Dr. Nicole Paczia
  Public Relations
• Dr. Martina  Preiner
  Consultation
  (ge-consultation@...) e-mail only to Martina Preiner

We have developed a Gender Equality Plan that is specifically tailored to our situation. With this Gender Equality Plan, all existing and planned activities to promote gender equality at our institute are bundled, monitored and made transparent for all employees.
