In the top left corner, you will find the website’s logo, which you can click at any time to return to the homepage.

On the right side, there are icons for Easy Language and Sign Language, allowing you to switch to the accessible versions. These icons are always visible whenever an accessible version (e.g., in Easy Read or Sign Language) exists alongside the original. The version for people with hearing impairments presents the content of a page as videos in German Sign Language, respectively International Sign.

Next to these icons, there is a language switch for German/English, shown if a translation into the respective language is available for a given article. Adjacent to this is the so-called Hamburger menu with three horizontal lines.

Opening this menu provides access to the main sections of the website.

At the top of the menu, you will find the search function.

At the bottom of the menu, there are links to our contact page, job offers, press contacts, and the option to subscribe to our newsletter.
