At Berlin Global Village, we reject all forms of racism and discrimination, including their intersectional entanglements, and actively and resolutely oppose them. We therefore understand it as a shared responsibility to create a space in which users can interact with one another in a discrimination-sensitive way. To this end, Berlin Global Village strives for a power-critical, discrimination-aware, and diversity-oriented approach—as an organization, as a network, as a place, and as individuals.

We see Berlin Global Village as a learning organization and a learning network that is aware of the challenges and complexity involved in addressing racism and discrimination. We know that we will make mistakes. We want to learn from these mistakes in solidarity—individually, collectively, and institutionally—and to seek and maintain open and constructive dialogue in all directions.
