Gender- and diversity-sensitive language

Language shapes our reality and our thinking. That is why, in order to make equal opportunities possible, discrimination-free and inclusive language in which each and all are addressed equally is essential.

Recommendations for gender and diversity-sensitive language (2021) as well as a guideline on linguistic equality (2014) support BFH members in the implementation.

Gender- und diversitygerechte Sprache

BFH participates in the Gisler Protocol (in German). In doing so, it emphasises its commitment to gender-equitable communication and the promotion of diverse perspectives in education.
