Gender equality and equal opportunities

Gender equality and equal opportunities are fundamental principles in all parts of the University’s activities. As part of the University, the Faculty of Medicine works preventatively against discrimination and to promote equal opportunities. You can read more about this below.

Systematic preventive work against discrimination (Swedish acronym SFAD) 

According to the Discrimination Act, as an education provider, the Faculty of Medicine is obliged to undertake preventative measures against discrimination on an ongoing basis. It is the faculty’s responsibility to:

  1. Determine whether there is a risk of discrimination or obstacles to individuals’ equal rights and opportunities.
  2. Analyse the causes of the identified risks and obstacles.
  3. Take preventative and promotional measures.
  4. Follow-up and assess the work undertaken.

If you have thoughts or ideas that could form part of the preventative work in education, please contact us. You will find contact details in the box on this page.
