The Online Data Explorer for AfroZenus allows access to selected, summarized data from the AfroZensus survey. It is the first time in the history of the Federal Republic of Germany that such a comprehensive data set provides information about the realities of life, experiences of discrimination and political demands of Black communities.

Diversity in the Federal Administration (DiBu)

DiBu scrutinizes the status quo of diversity at the Federal Ministry of Familiy

Based on this, recommendations for actions for a diversity strategyof the ministry will be developed.

CFE implements the collection of anti-discrimination and equality data in the form of a quantitative employee survey.

Survey Ecosystem for equality data collection

Build to standardize, streamline and support our processes of collecting equality data.

In order to standardize, streamline and support our proccesses of collecting equality data we are building an survey ecosystem including a data pipeline to increase our capacities, both in quality and quantity, for equality data research. In the last year we have developed a product vision, conducted internal UX workshops, developed technical concepts and mapped the research process.

Hackathon "Diversity Data"

Citizens For Europe (CFE) and CorrelAid have partnered up to conduct a survey among CorrelAid community members on the topic of (non-)volunteering and (anti-)discrimination. To kick off the technical tracks of the collaboration, CFE and CorrelAid co-organized a hackathon, the first for us at CFE. From 9th to 11th September 2022, about 35 CorrelAid volunteers - data scientists, data engineers, developers and data4good activists - joined us in Berlin Wedding to support our team to build the technical infrastructure and data pipeline for the collection, analysis, and reporting of equality data.

Online survey Vielfalt im Film

For an inclusive film industry in front and behind the camera

How diverse is the German-speaking film and television industry? Who is represented and how, and who is not? What exclusions and precarious working conditions exist and how can we promote the development of an inclusive working environment in the film industry? The initiative and online survey Vielfalt im Film (ViF) was the first comprehensive survey of anti-discrimination and equality data in the German-speaking film and television industry. Over 6,000 members of the film industry in their 440 professions participated in the online survey. The results of #VielfaltImFilm indicate that discrimination pervades the German film industry and limits the participation of people with different diversity backgrounds.

Survey on structural exclusions in the party Bündnis 90/die Grüne

So far, hardly any quantitative and qualitative surveys have examined discrimination, barriers to access and career opportunities for persons affected by discrimination in German political parties. On behalf of the Federal Executive Committee of the party Bündnis 90 / die Grünen, our qualitative survey on experiences of discrimination within the party is a first step towards gaining specific insights into the mechanisms of exclusion and effective measures for inclusion within the Green party.

Collection of anti-discrimination and equality data

We work on strategies for a more inclusive society.

People of Color and Black people are underrepresented in leadership positions. To accelerate equitable change, we conduct research on diversity in organizations and collect data that help them to diversify, uncover discrimination, and become more inclusive. We develop strategies, demands and concepts for the development of inclusive administrations, organizations and companies. Aided by our network of community organisations as well as legal, policy and technology experts, our team conducts research to identify hurdles and evaluate policies and activities designed to enhance and deepen inclusion.
