The new Hamburg Senator for Science, Research and Equal Opportunities, Maryam Blumenthal, made her first visit to the Hamburg University of Music and Drama (HfMT) yesterday after taking office. After a lengthy discussion with University President Prof. Dr. Jan Philipp Sprick about current topics and projects at the HfMT, the Senator attended the evening event "diverse voices" on the occasion of the 13th German Diversity Day in the JazzHall.

In her welcoming address, the Senator emphasized that the HfMT's work makes a significant contribution to making Hamburg a place where science is open to all parts of society. "Only when you can help shape things, only when you can exercise your own rights, only then is diversity a reality in our society," said Maryam Blumenthal. During their training, our students have the opportunity to reflect and develop their individual artistic personalities. "I would like to thank you all for contributing to Hamburg's diversity. For initiating dialogues and building bridges," said the Senator in conclusion, emphasizing that she was very much looking forward to future collaboration.
