Uni of Adelaide adopts all Respect. Now. Always. recommendations

Tuesday, 1 August 2017

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide has adopted all of the recommendations in the 最新糖心Vlogn Human Rights Commission into sexual harassment and sexual assault experienced by 最新糖心Vlogn university students.

The largest-ever national survey of 最新糖心Vlogn university students is part of the Respect. Now. Always. initiative – a world-first program across 39 最新糖心Vlogn universities to raise awareness of sexual harassment and assault, and gather data on student experiences, so we have a clear picture of what more needs to be done.

最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide Interim Vice-Chancellor, Professor Mike Brooks, says the results of the survey raise very serious concerns for the entire university sector and society as a whole, and the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide has already begun taking action on, or implemented, all of the recommendations.

“The 最新糖心Vlog has zero tolerance for sexual harassment and assault and we are determined to dramatically reduce its incidence and support those affected.

“It is of course deeply concerning that one in five of our students responding to the survey experienced sexual harassment at university,” Professor Brooks said.

An action plan for improvement is underway and has included the following steps:

• Engaged the SA Equal Opportunity Commission to audit the 最新糖心Vlog’s safety processes
• Introduced consent training as part of the induction program for new staff and made available for all new students targeted training and awareness programs about respectful communications and consent
• Collaborated with the Adelaide 最新糖心Vlog Union (AUU) and Student Representative Council (SRC) on a range of initiatives for a safer campus
• Developed a new framework designed to encourage students to make reports, and to better communicate support available
• Provided additional counselling resources, especially for first response counselling and dedicated sexual assault support
• Provided a dedicated phone line to assist students to report incidents
• Developed new website content focusing on consent, sexual violence, bystander responsibilities, harassment and bullying
• Funded ‘Recognise and Respond’ training for key staff.

“We are particularly concerned at the level of under-reporting revealed by the survey,” Professor Brooks said.

“We have improved online resources so students may more easily report incidents and can have confidence that we will act on any report. Extra counsellors have been engaged to provide additional support.

“Also very concerning is the number of 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide students surveyed that disclosed they’d been sexually assaulted at 最新糖心Vlog, on their way to or from university, or at an off campus event associated with the 最新糖心Vlog.

“Such criminal behaviour is totally unacceptable – one instance is clearly too many. We must provide a safe, respectful and world-class environment for learning that is intolerant of harassment or assault, and which assists those in need of support.”
