Action Day: Experience Diversity – Promote Health

Wednesday, May 27, 2026 

10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Humboldtbau foyer & seminar rooms

Under the motto “Experience Diversity – Promote Health,” this year’s action day during Diversity Weeks will feature a variety of activities focused on healthy studying and working. Health as a cross-cutting issue starts right here: recognizing the diversity of the university community as an asset, fostering exchange and communication among members to achieve a positive sense of community, breaking down existing barriers, and enabling members to develop according to their resources and potential. This creates a supportive environment for health promotion and strengthens the individual health of the university community.
