Day of action against abuse of power
Thursday, 11/27/2025 10:00 - 18:00 Hochschule für Musik und Theater

On November 27, all universities of music nationwide will focus on the topic of power in the university context. We at the HfMT Hamburg are proclaiming this day an "academic day" (dies academicus). The day of action on the topic of power-critical perspectives will be supported and organized by the entire university with all its specialist groups, institutes and deaneries, the staff in the library, technology and administration and the Presidential Board.
We will open the stages again - the real stages at the Milchstraße location and the ideal stages within us - to think critically together and exchange ideas about what needs to be changed.


Recently, power-critical perspectives have come to the fore in artistic universities. In a list of demands published in November 2023, the ASten of all conservatoires called for changes in the culture of cooperation, ranging from the systematic survey and evaluation of abuses of power to mandatory training for teaching staff, student empowerment and, for example, simplified changes in teaching staff.


There are public and non-public formats.
Interested guests are welcome!
