Unsere Austauschrunden von women@KIT bieten Studentinnen des KIT einen geschützten Raum, um Erfahrungen und Gedanken zu teilen. In regelmäßigen Treffen, etwa dreimal im Jahr, diskutieren wir Themen rund um das Leben von Frauen in Studium, Wissenschaft und Beruf. Der Austausch fördert das Zusammenkommen unterschiedlicher Perspektiven und ermöglicht es, einander zuzuhören und sich gegenseitig zu bestärken.
 
Gerade in Wissenschaft und MINT sind Frauen oft mit strukturellen Ungleichheiten konfrontiert. Stereotype, unbewusste Vorurteile und bestehende Machtgefälle können ihren Werdegang beeinflussen. In unseren Austauschrunden können wir diese Themen offen ansprechen, gemeinsam Strategien entwickeln und voneinander lernen.
 
Wie gehen wir mit den Herausforderungen der akademischen Welt um? Wie können wir uns gegenseitig unterstützen? Wie können wir uns bei den Themen Karriere, Berufseinstieg und Vereinbarkeit von Familie und Beruf unterstützen?
Es geht dabei nicht nur um individuelle Stärke, sondern auch um ein kollektives Bewusstsein. Unsere Austauschrunden geben Raum für solidarische Vernetzung, Selbstermächtigung und Empowerment. Die Treffen sind interaktiv und offen – jede Teilnehmerin kann sich so viel einbringen, wie sie möchte. Ein thematischer Input soll zum Austausch anregen.
 
Thema dieser Runde: Frauen und Führung
