At Freie Universität you will find resources, support and counseling services, learning opportunities as well as institutional information and infrastructural advice. The services are aimed at signalizing sensitivity towards several topics that belong to one’s own identity and the needs connected to it. 

The Diversity and Anti-Discrimination Office was established in 2023 in order to actively promote diversity and eliminate mechanisms of exclusion at the Freie Universität. On their website you will find extensive information on the university‘s commitment on creating an inclusive and respectful environment for teaching, learning and working.
