The committee has existed since 1973 and is currently chaired by three elected members. The committee includes representatives of the city council, the ARGE independent welfare associations, the city administration, 56 associations/organizations/institutions for people with disabilities as well as numerous affected and/or committed citizens.
The Disability Advisory Council is not a citizens’ advice center. It represents the interests of people with disabilities in dealings with the city council and the city administration. Eight specialist working groups focus on the following areas: Work, women, leisure & education, mobility, schools, tourism, support services and housing.

The city of Munich stands for an urban society without discrimination with equal opportunities for all. Equal rights are a constitutional principle, but the real implementation of this norm requires cooperation with civil society in addition to a state mandate. In Munich, there are a large number of organizations, institutions and projects that are involved in the task of implementing equal rights for women, men and people of other genders.
With this “Women’s Handbook Munich”, the Equal Opportunities Office for Women of the City of Munich offers an overview and information on where to turn with a specific concern. More information about the Equal Opportunities Office for Women can be found on our homepage.
