You will be first given the opportunity to speak openly about what you have been through and reflect on those experiences. Your counselor will then support you in developing strategies to prevent an incident of this nature from happening again. Together, you can work on a solution or approach that best suits your needs – whether that’s a conversation with the wrongdoer, pressing ahead with an official complaint, or pursuing other legal remedies. The internal and external organizations that offer advice and counseling listed here – including the Chief Gender Equality Officer of Freie Universität Berlin – will only act in accordance with your wishes and take your interests and needs as a baseline.
