You can participate in the survey if in the last two years in Germany you were disadvantaged or treated unfairly in comparison to others. For example
- for racist or antisemitic reasons,
- because you have a disability or chronic illness,
- due to your appearance,
- due to your gender,
- due to your sexual orientation,
- due to your age or
- due to your religion.
Sexual harassment is also classed as discrimination. We want to know what you experienced.
By the way: In Germany, there is a law against discrimination, namely the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG). It prohibits certain types of discrimination in specific areas of life. For instance, the AGG applies in case of sexual discrimination in the workplace, if you do not get a flat on account of your headscarf or if your employment contract will not be made permanent on account of your disability. In case of violation of the AGG, you may be entitled to damages and/or compensation.
If you need legal advice on a discrimination or want to report it, please get in touch with our counselling team. On the website of the German Anti-Discrimination Association (advd), you can also search for a counselling centre near your home.
