Equal Opportunities

Equal Opportunities Strategy

In its 2012 strategy, the University of Bern formulated the implementation of actual equality between women and men as one of its key priorities. The Intrafaculty Commission for Gender Equality (IFKG) supports the Faculty of Medicine in implementing these goals. It regards gender equality as an integral part of promoting excellence. The main objective of the IFKG is therefore to support gender equality together with the decision-makers in the institutes and clinics of the Faculty of Medicine. The aim is to create better conditions for more women to decide to take on responsibility in top positions. Among other things, the IFKG would like to show ways of reconciling career and family life.
