Bullying, Harassment and Sexual Misconduct
Bullying, Harassment and Sexual Misconduct
UCL have recently launched a university-wide campaign to combat bullying, harassment and sexual misconduct, accompanied by a new online ‘Support and Report’ tool. You can report anonymously or contact an advisor.
UCL has very clear statements on Dignity and Work. On the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion webpage you find details about UCL’s prevention of bullying, harassment and sexual misconduct policy and the procedures in place to launch a formal complaint. You can find information about their recommended approach here.
Students
Should you endure or observe sexual harassment we recommend you contact your personal tutor or a member of staff you trust, the student mediator, Ruth Siddall, the vice warden or warden of the halls of residences (if you are staying in one) or either the UCLU Women’s Officer of Welfare and International Officer if the incident occurred at a UCLU event. You can also contact your Geography Department EDI representative, details of who they are can be found in the Departmental Student/Staff Groups section above.
You can report an incident through the online reporting form. Within the form you also have the possibility of setting up an appointment with the Adviser for Women students. To do so complete the Student and Registry Services Student Enquiry Form, select the option ‘request an appointment’ and the service required ‘Adviser to Women Students’.
Alternatively, request to speak with an advisor on Report + Support: An advisor can: talk through the University's procedures, inform you on how to make a complaint and let you know what support is available, in confidence.
And Students can start a Report through Report + Support, or by contacting the Student Casework team. Please read the attached guidance on reporting the conduct of a student, or staff member.
