Equal Opportunity at the University of Bonn
As a learning organization, the University views diversity in its community, including different capabilities, characters, experiences, constitutions, life journeys and ways of living, as both an enrichment and a challenge. The achievement of diversity and the combination of its individual elements enables an organization to combine different approaches to problem-solving, which in turn opens up new perspectives, uncovers new ideas and questions, and ultimately results in more comprehensive solutions. As such, the entire University community benefits from horizons broadened and more effective use of resources.
