We offer free counseling on various topics related to accessibility in studies (e.g. different examination methods, financial support options, project funding opportunities). We are committed to awareness raising, sensitization and public relations. Furthermore, we take action in the event of incidents of discrimination.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We try to make our Counseling as uncomplicated as possible and tailor it to you and your individual needs. Let us know via email at barrierefrei@oeh.ac.at<\/a> in which setting you would like to be consulted. If you are unable to take advantage of Counseling without special support (e.g. \u00d6GS interpreting), please let us know. In this case, too, we will gladly try to find an individual solution!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
