Family diversity at LMU

By acknowledging the different family models of our staff and students and supporting their respective needs, we create an atmosphere in which all LMU members can develop their full potential, regardless of their background, lifestyle or responsibilities.

Family-friendly structures such as flexible working hours and childcare options actively contribute to equality and promote diversity.

As part of this year's diversity initiative "FamilyCare@LMU", we continue our efforts to promote an inclusive and diverse environment at LMU.

We are building on the successful programs "WeCare@LMU" and "Belonging@LMU", which have already made a significant contribution to promoting the health and well-being of our members and strengthening the sense of community within our LMU community.

For me, the most important thing is to find a balance between family and work with a lot of courage, joy and a bit of irony and humor. Then the focus is no longer on a career, but on a fulfilled life.

Prof. Dr. Francesca Biagini, Vice President for International Affairs and Diversity

The initiative

FamilyCare@LMU bundles existing programmes for students and staff members with family responsibilities and provides insights into current support measures as well as ongoing projects in research and teaching on the topic of family. Join us in shaping a university that lives diversity, belonging and family friendliness!
