Data in the area of gender equality is compiled in the Equality Controlling. This allows the uni­ver­sity and its schools to be ana­lyzed with regard to gender equality goals and gender equality measures to be deve­loped in a tailored manner.

 Equality Controlling

Gender-inclusive language is characterized by the fact that persons of all genders are addressed equally using gender-neutral or gender-inclusive personal desig­nations and that unnecessary or stereo­typing refe­rences to gender are avoided.

 Language & Gender

In the Dialog­initiative, the MWK, the LHK and lakog nieder­sachsen are working on the strategic development of gender equality at uni­ver­sities. Under the project management of Dr.ⁱⁿ Sabine Jösting, the fourth round of the Dialog­initiative (2024 - 2026) is currently taking place, which is dedicated to the topic of "inter­sec­tional gender equality work".
