аIJʹÙÍø is known for excellence in education and research, and championing initiatives that have social impact and reflect a commitment to human rights and social justice.
Achieving a safe and respectful campus and workplace for all students and staff requires a аIJʹÙÍø strategy to frame ongoing action to prevent and respond to gendered violence, including sexual misconduct.
Our aim is to Stop. Empower. Support.
аIJʹÙÍø recognises the problem of gendered violence in universities and is committed to playing a part in changing this and making аIJʹÙÍø a safer place for all. Through this Strategy аIJʹÙÍø seeks to prevent gendered violence and offer respectful strategies to assist students and staff members when an incident does occur.
STOPÂ gendered violence on our campuses and ensure consistent implementation of prevention activities.
EMPOWERÂ all university students and staff to take action to prevent and respond to gendered violence by:
- committing to a safe and respectful аIJʹÙÍø
- being aware of gendered violence
- reporting incidents of gendered violence to the аIJʹÙÍø Reporting Portal
- raising any matters with relevant faculties, schools or business units to increasing confidence to access supports available both within and external to аIJʹÙÍø
- taking action as a bystander where it is appropriate and safe to do so.
SUPPORTÂ staff and students who are affected by gendered violence in a trauma informed way by providing appropriate support and referral options, tailored training and other communication resources.
