BeVeOm network

The network of "complaint/improvement managers and ombudspersons" (BeVeOm) meets once a year. Participants are all university actors and contact persons who deal centrally or university-wide with complaints, suggestions, ideas, ombudsperson questions and feedback in their areas of study and teaching.

The network develops or exchanges statements on various topics such as members' working methods, university laws, digitization and advising, relevant conferences or continuing education offerings. The aim of the network is to promote a culture of fairness in practice at German universities and to strengthen and network members in their activities.
Each network meeting is documented and made available to interested parties in a password-protected form. If you have any questions, please contact the team of network spokespersons.
In 2011, the University of Göttingen organized the meeting with a focus on the exchange of experiences in the areas of cooperation with different actors at the universities, methods of dealing with sensitive issues, and the tasks of complaint and improvement managers and ombudspersons.
