Composers' Equality Survey 2021

With participating in this survey you will contribute to finding out, why we didn't achieve gender equality among composers yet. What do we need to do to support female composers, so they get and hold access to the world wide "market" of commissions and jobs? Do we need to support them during child-caring? Do we need female quotas in granting systems and universities? And how are the quotas presently in composition classes, among students & teachers, and in world premieres played by ensembles and soloists? Which festivals and organizers do commission women and which don't?

This is a horribly LONG survey. You don't need to answer every single question though! You can always jump to the next section if you feel bored or don't know what to write down. It will be of help though, if you enthusiatically answer as many questions as your patience allows and I would be overjoyed if you even add your personal thoughts and ideas. 

All data here is collected anonymously. Unless you explicitly write down your contact somewhere. 

I will publish the evaluation on my social media accounts and in interviews with print medias and radio stations. Keep an eye on my channels, if you're interested.

Thanks a million for your efforts! 

And now our first section begins with: your studies!
