Gender-appropriate writing: Making texts reader-friendly and meaningful

This webinar is held in German.
Gendering is a basic attitude. And the next important step towards a more inclusive society. In this webinar, you will learn about the different forms of gender. At the same time, we will focus on the readability and meaningfulness of your texts. We will formulate alternatives and discuss what gender research, DIN standards and the Duden dictionary recommend. This will give you the tools you need to write in a gender-neutral way, guarantee the flow of your text and convince critics.
