The project
Steilpass is the first nationwide pilot project for the development of diversity and inclusion in football. Model locations in the Steilpass project are the Bundesliga clubs FC St. Pauli, SC Freiburg and VfL Wolfsburg. Each constituent part of the project is implemented with the involvement of all the parties involved in the project consortium.
In addition to support from the Steilpass project team, core components of the project are three work packages designed to educate and support employers on the topic:
Patricia Ekmekçi
– Operational project management
– focus on process support and staff survey
Patricia gained practical experience in the field of “diversity-sensitive organisational development” during her previous job at a charitable association. She is also a diversity trainer and anti-bias multiplier. For her, diversity is a cross-cutting issue that is relevant in all areas of organisational development.
