Anti-Discrimination Office of the State Capital of Hanover

The Anti-Discrimination Office of the State Capital of Hanover, as a municipal authority, is tasked with dealing with institutional or individual unequal treatment of people within the Hanover city area and working to ensure that this does not occur.

People who live in the city of Hanover and/or experience discrimination here can discuss these experiences in a safe space. Possible courses of action are discussed and developed together. We also advise people who observe discrimination or those who are unsure whether they have experienced discrimination and would like an assessment.

Advice is always confidential and free of charge. In some cases, anonymous advice is also possible. If necessary, we can refer you to other support options.

The consultation is not limited to fixed opening hours. Appointments can be made in person, by email, Instagram or by phone.
