Freie Universität Berlin is creating a central Diversity Fund for pilot projects dedicated to promoting diversity and antidiscrimination. This funding is open to all members of the university.

The Diversity Fund provides funding for innovative pilot projects that promote diversity and prevent discrimination at Freie Universität Berlin. These projects should have the following objectives:

• Support university members affected by discrimination
• Raise awareness about issues related to diversity and antidiscrimination at the university
• Increase the visibility of diversity and antidiscrimination measures, or other specific related measures

Ideally, the unit that initiated the project will continue to pursue the project’s goals after the funding period has concluded and/or the project can be transferred to other areas across the university.

The deadline for submitting applications for funding is 11:59 p.m. on October 31, 2024.

On September 19, 2024, from 11:00 a.m.‒12:30 p.m., there will be a hybrid informational event for potential applicants who have questions about the funding conditions, to which we cordially invite you!

Further information on the funding criteria and opportunities as well as the documents required for the application can be downloaded under Downloads (on the right-hand side below).

The Diversity and Antidiscrimination Office is looking forward to your active participation and your applications!
