All-gender toilets

From June 2023, the University of Koblenz will now have all-gender toilets. These are located in buildings E and F on the ground floor.

The purpose of the toilets is to ensure barrier-free and non-discriminatory toilet use. These toilets provide safe access to sanitary facilities for people outside the binary spectrum, but also enable fathers, for example, to go to the toilet with their female toddlers without any problems. The toilets are labelled with the words 'for everyone' next to a toilet sign.
