Misch dich ein - mach Politik vor Ort!

Germany still lacks women in politics in 2021. Their share in parliaments is even declining in some cases, particularly at municipal level.

"Misch dich ein - mach Politik vor Ort!" can be translated as "Get involved - do politics locally!". The program aims to give female students interested in politics an understanding of local political structures, show them how they can shape their lives and motivate and encourage them to get involved in politics.

Over two seminar weekends in Berlin, participants are offered a varied program of workshops, lectures, training, exchange and networking. A digital accompanying seminar and various events in Dortmund, Bochum and Essen round off the program.

 

"Misch dich ein – mach Politik vor Ort!" is an offer by the Equal Opportunities Office of TU Dortmund University in cooperation with the University of Duisburg-Essen, Ruhr University Bochum, Leipzig University, European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder) and the European Academy for Women in Politics and Business (EAF) Berlin as well as the Equal Opportunities Officers of the municipalities mentioned.

Further information can be found in the program flyer (in German).
