Tackling violence against women, harassment and hate crime affecting university students

This conference will offer practical assistance to institutions to challenge violence against women, harassment and hate crime affecting students and for responding to student concerns. It will help delegates to develop policies and put processes in place.

Key themes at this conference on tackling harassment will include:

  • Working with students and staff to prevent harassment and hate crime, through cultural and behavioural change
  • Using partners with specialist knowledge to enhance institutional policies and support staff
  • Preventing and responding to Gender Based Violence
  • Ensuring there are appropriate and effective reporting procedures, and using technology to enhance these further
  • Implementing an institution-wide approach to prevent incidences of violence against women, harassment and hate crime affecting students

Why now?

This conference will be the first opportunity for delegates to discuss the recommendations of Universities UK’s taskforce to address violence against women, harassment and hate crime affecting students. Delegates will be able to share best practice around the taskforce’s recommendations on implementing an institution-wide approach to harassment, violence against women and hate crime.​
