The Chemnitz University of Technology (TUC) is participating in the project together with more than 350 scientific institutions Initiative “#Togetherland – Diversity makes us strong” by DIE ZEIT, Handelsblatt, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Tagesspiegel, WirtschaftsWoche and Ströer and thus sets an example against right-wing extremism and is committed to freedom, diversity and a welcoming culture. Today DIE ZEIT published a full-page advertisement with the logos of the first 160 scientific institutions that are part of the campaign. The TUC logo can also be found here.
In the past, the TUC has repeatedly advocated tolerance, diversity and cosmopolitanism – in keeping with the commitment of the Senate, the Rectorate and the University Council of the TUC to these values, in which the three bodies emphasize, among other things, racist, right-wing extremist or openly right-wing extremist values To oppose positions decisively (see keyword).
Event notice: On March 5, 2024, the “Chemnitz Peace Day”, the city of Chemnitz, together with many partners, including the TUC, will commemorate the victims of the Second World War as part of numerous program offerings.

Keyword: Commitment of the Senate, the Rectorate and the University Council of the TUC to tolerance, diversity and cosmopolitanism
The TUC strongly advocates against discrimination and for tolerance, diversity and cosmopolitanism. She strives to consistently live these principles internally and confidently convey them externally. This is also reflected in the commitment of the Senate, the Rectorate and the University Council of the TUC to tolerance, diversity and cosmopolitanism: “Chemnitz University of Technology as an educational and research institution offers people from all over the world a home and warmly welcomes them, regardless of where they come from come, what religion they belong to, what sexual orientation they have or what form of coexistence they choose. Based on this conviction, we want a cosmopolitan and accepting climate not only on the university campus but also beyond. We therefore firmly oppose statements and actions that contradict this concern, especially racist, right-wing extremist or even openly right-wing radical positions. We strongly urge all people with responsibility in politics, business, society and culture to continue to fight for an open and discrimination-free society and to stand up for the basic values of a free, democratic and open society!”
