The Academy of Fine Arts Munich is committed to providing effective protection against sexualized discrimination and violence and actively implements the provisions of the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG). Sexualized discrimination and violence are forms of gender discrimination, violations of the principle of equal treatment and attacks on the dignity and personal rights of those affected (cf. §3 para. 4 AGG). The Academy of Fine Arts Munich assumes responsibility for ensuring that people's personal rights to sexual self-determination are respected and safeguarded and that individual personality boundaries are recognized. Sexualized discrimination and violence are a massive impairment of such personal rights. Sexual harassment creates a stressful, degrading, intimidating working and learning environment. The guideline against sexualized discrimination and violence is intended to help protect employees and students from sexual harassment at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich and to prevent and stop sexual harassment through the measures provided.
