Which date marked Equal Pay Day in 2023? What world religion does not consider Sunday as its weekly holiday? Not these, but very similar questions await you at the "Diversity Quiz n' Lunch".

The quiz – including a short inspiring impulse with facts and figures – will be facilitated by diversity expert and business coach Tanja Bauer-Glück and hosted by the GCB German Convention Bureau.

So stop by, put your knowledge to the test, win one of our cool prizes and meet some amazing new people on the fly! We also stand by the “lunch” part of our announcement – snacks and drinks will be provided.

Cologne is colourful - and for years has been a fixed point of view for the concerns of the LGBTQIA+ community. Because Cologne lives tolerance, cosmopolitanism and peaceful coexistence. Why is this diversity lived out in Cologne? Probably because it is a genuine part of the city - as a home for 180 different nations, as a stronghold of gay and lesbian life, as a city with 9 % Cologne residents with a severely handicapped ID, as a city in which all age groups experience equal growth. Because diversity is simply more fun.
