Crazy, that only 1.5% of funding goes to all-female teams in Germany vs 92% to all-male teams and only 6.5% to mixed leadership teams. It seems we've made zero progress in this regard over the last ten years, despite many efforts and data. 🤯😔

Danke @DuezenTekkal für deine unermüdliche Arbeit und immer glasklaren Worten, Appellen und Warnungen. 🙏🏽.
Nein zu #Antisemitismus, Nein zu Muslimfeindlichkeit und Nein zu #Rassismus. Mir ist es ein (Herzens) Bedürfnis jedwede Menschenfeindlichkeit auf den bundesweiten Demonstrationen anzusprechen, sonst ist unsere Kritik unvollständig. Geht bitte weiter demonstrieren. Danke #München.

Thinking of my great great grandmothers Adele Weidenfeld and Laura Eisenstein and the millions of others murdered during the Holocaust. Let us remember the atrocities and lessons of the past, and not be blind or indifferent to the warning signs of today. #WeRemember #NeverAgain

So heartening to join hundreds of thousands across Germany this weekend out on the streets in solidarity and protest against the far-right, against extremism, and standing up for our open, inclusive and democratic society. Lots of work to do, but there is hope. 🖤❤️💛
