• Action day: November 27, 2025

The HfMT is participating in the nationwide day of action by German music universities against the abuse of power, which will take place on November 27, 2025 under the motto "Kunst. Power. Humanity" will take place. The day of action is aimed at all students, teaching staff and employees in technology and administration.

In workshops, information and discussion rounds, the HfMT will address the topic in its various facets and reflect on possible courses of action to prevent the abuse of power. The program will conclude with an evening event that will take an artistic look at the topic. In addition to activities at the Cologne headquarters, further activities are planned at the Aachen and Wuppertal locations as well as at FB 7:ZZT. Details of the program will be made available on the HfMT homepage in due course.

It is important to the HfMT that the university is a safe place for all students, employees and visitors where, in accordance with its Code of Conduct , there is no place for abuse of power, whether in the form of discrimination, harassment or other transgressions.
