Portrait and offer
The Equality Office for Women was established in 1985 by resolution of the City Council. According to the Equality Statute, it works towards equality between women and men at work, in the family and in society. To this end, it advises the units at the city level on the development of a gender-equitable municipal infrastructure. It is also part of the network structure of offices, institutions and committees for girls’ and women’s work in Munich and beyond. Topics are worked on jointly and events are held on them. In addition, it advises citizens and employees of the city of Munich on the topic of gender equality and, if necessary, refers them to other counseling centers.

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.
