Women's representatives
Although the term "women's representatives" is defined by law (BremHG), the overaching goal of our activities is to advice and support all scientists and students at MARUM, as well as the director and decentralised commitees in the implementation of the legally fixed equal opportunities duty (BremHG).
The decentralised women's representatives are regularly elected by the MARUM women plenary meeting (last on 20.01.2022).

[Bitte aktivieren Sie Javascript] network meetings
What is [Bitte aktivieren Sie Javascript] network meeting? We wish to offer the opportunity for all MARUM female staff to meet and exchange information informally. For this, we organise meetings which take place approximately quarterly. Each meeting has a specific topic and room for free discussion. According to law (BremHG) we are only women’s representatives for the scientific MARUM staff. Nevertheless, we wish for a status-independent exchange. Thus, ALL MARUM female staff are cordially invited: technicians, administration and scientists (from PhD students to professors)!
Some of the topics that we discussed:
- Gender is a spectrum
- Gender pay gap and glass ceiling
- Positive communication
- Everyday sexism
Equal Opportunity Measures
At MARUM promotion of gender equality and equal opportunity at all levels has been a central objective for many years. Find more information about Equal Opportunity Measures
We have also created a pregnancy checklist. It is available with the resources for families on the Family Support page.
