Diversity Days 2026

The Diversity Days at Thuringian universities are taking place again this year. Under the motto:โ€žDemocracy needs diversity - diversity needs democracyโ€œ awaits you from 18 May to 12 June a varied programme with exciting events relating to diversity, participation and social cohesion.

This year's opening lecture will be given by Tanja Berg on the subject of โ€žDemocracy needs diversity, diversity needs democracyโ€œ.

The lecture will shed light on why different perspectives enrich our society as well as research and teaching and what role universities play as places of open thinking for democratic values. You can look forward to inspiring impulses, new perspectives and a stimulating exchange.

Our university is also taking part in the Diversity Days with numerous exciting events. You can find the complete programme of Nordhausen University of Applied Sciences on this page and Here is the programme of all Thuringian universities.

We look forward to welcoming many participants and your interest in an open, diverse university culture.
