(No) Walk in the Park - a scroll stroll
The walk was accessible in the Campus from March 8 until June 30, 2022. But you can still take a "scroll" digitally on this page. A part of the concept was to make the long temporal distances felt. Distances that extend not only from the founding of the University to the first female students, but also partly between each step in the direction of equality. Each additional win meant another hard fight.
We have tried to capture this temporal dimension also in the digital version of the walk. That is why we start in the year 1365 on this page - and then you have to scroll for a while.
In the analogue version, there were spots along the way that talked about some topics more extensively. You can find the content of these spots under Your Story, Your Visions and In Depth. The biographies of the mentioned female pioneers are linked in the respective texts.
After the impressions of the analogue walk, you can start with the digital "scroll stroll".
