Equal Opportunities at MPI Magdeburg

"Fundamentally, all employees and applicants, have the same opportunities, irrespective of their gender, nationality, religion, disability, age, cultural origin or sexual identity. We can only expect diversity by guaranteeing equality of opportunities. In order to thrive, excellence in research, for which the Max Planck Society and consequently our institute stand, requires diversity - an essential component in the evolution of our cutting-edge research. To this end, awareness needs to be created in all departments and at all levels of the hierarchy within our institute."

(Prof. Kai Sundmacher, Introduction to the first Gender Equality Plan 2018 - 2020)
