The SFB 956 Gender Board (GB) focuses its work on gender issues, but is also concerned with other matters of inequality and/or harassment at the workplace. Hence, the major GB tasks are:
- monitoring of gender issues within the SFB 956
- to raise awareness of gender issues within the SFB 956
- implementation of SFB 956 specific gender measures
- distribution of information on gender measures implemented at the participating institutions
- to serve as focal point for gender as well as other inequality issues and matters of harassment at work, with each GB member acting as a contact point
- networking with related (university) groups working on gender issues
