Workshop on securing evidence in AD consulting

Date: 16.10.2024 at 10: 00 - 14:00 Cost: join for

This online workshop deals with the question of securing evidence in the context of AD counseling. The question of whether a person who has been discriminated against will win in court depends crucially on the evidence. Section 22 of the AGG regulates a so-called relief from the burden of proof. What does this mean and how does the burden of proof regulation work in practice? How can people seeking advice influence the evidence and how can counseling centers support them in this? Among other things, testing will be presented as a method for collecting evidence. The workshop will cover:

• § 22 AGG

• Basics of Evidence Law

• securing evidence

• Testing (overview)

The workshop will be led by Kerstin Kühn. Kerstin Kühn is a lawyer and worked for many years as an anti-discrimination consultant at the TBB's Berlin anti-discrimination network.

Register by October 9.10.2024, XNUMX using the form (see link/”Further information”)!

Online expert exchange: Strengthening state anti-discrimination laws! Exchange, strategies, networking

Six years after Berlin's State Anti-Discrimination Act (LADG) came into force, Rhineland-Palatinate has become the next German state to pass a similar law: the "State Law for Equal Opportunities, Democracy and Diversity (LCDV)." A draft law is also currently under consideration in North Rhine-Westphalia and is going through the parliamentary process. In Baden-Württemberg, however, a long-standing political process – despite a broad civil society alliance – has failed for the time being. And in Lower Saxony, an alliance for an LADG was recently formed, also supported by anti-discrimination activists. So there's a lot happening…
