The interim results of the independent historical study funded by the Archdiocese of Paderborn, which researchers at Paderborn University have been conducting since the beginning of 2020, have already caused outrage: the church and society have systematically looked the other way in cases of abuse and in several cases even condoned the offences.
Paderborn University is growing - and sustainably so. Two new buildings are replacing the ageing P-buildings and will provide state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities in the future.

8 March is International Women's Day. Established in 1911, there have been a number of developments since then, particularly in gender studies. Some things have been achieved, but there is still room for improvement in other areas. In the news - for example in the USA - developments are emerging that are thwarting efforts to achieve equality and undoing what has already been achieved.
Paderborn University once again impressed with its gender equality concept in the second selection round of the nationwide programme for female professors and was also one of a total of 12 universities to be awarded the title "University with strong gender equality".
