CIMCYC recognizes that holistic well-being, equal opportunity, and diversity are essential to scientific excellence and to a healthy work environment. Creating an institutional setting that supports the mental health and well-being of every member is a cornerstone of our strategy.
We promote initiatives that help CIMCYC build healthy work relationships and collaborations among research groups and their members. At the same time, we work to promote gender equality, as well as respect for and appreciation of diversity in an international environment.

Public Service Space
CIMCYC has set up a public service space intended for individuals who carry out their work at CIMCYC (institute members, research staff, doctoral and master’s students, PTGAS, and cleaning service staff).
The aim is to provide these individuals with a space where they can express their needs, suggestions, or difficulties related to wellbeing, equality, and diversity within the center, so that specific solutions can be identified and implemented.
This space will be available every Wednesday from 11:30 to 13:00 in office 304 at CIMCYC. To help us stay organized, we kindly ask you to book a slot in advance through the public service calendar.
