Con­tact and ad­vice centres

Non-discriminatory, barrier-free and inclusive study and working conditions and respectful interaction are indispensable cornerstones of everyday research and study life at Paderborn University. It is necessary to remove potential barriers on campus by identifying problems and developing solutions through dialogue. To this end, university members have access to various university contact points and counselling services in the event of discrimination.

This multitude of counselling centres and their different anchoring at Paderborn University often causes uncertainty among those seeking advice as to which centre they should turn to. Here, an overview can help to make counselling and action options for discrimination at Paderborn University visible. This page is currently under construction and will be available shortly.

A detailed overview of counselling services and contact points for Paderborn University employees can be found on the Human Resources Development website.

In addition, Paderborn University works together with external counselling centres to provide those affected with the best possible professional support outside the university structures.
