The AKCD’s Council of Spokeswomen forms working groups on diverse issues of gender equality. These working groups focus on specific projects and are dissolved once they have developed the planned recommendations or papers, completed their research and documentation or established the AKCD’s position on the matter. Some working groups include experts in the relevant field who are not members of the AKCD or the Council of Spokeswomen.
Currently active working groups (March 2026):
Working group on care (contact persons Nina Grohmann and Katarina Pollner)
Leaflet on Care: The Care Working Group developed a leaflet that summarizes information for employees with family members who require care. The leaflet has to be adapted to the specific conditions and structures of your institute. To do so, please download the leaflet as PowerPoint file.
