Actions and tools to raise awareness on gender-based violence and discrimination at the University of Bordeaux

In the academic year 2022-2023, the RESET team along with the Gender Equality Officer of the University of Bordeaux conducted several awareness-raising sessions on gender-based violence and discrimination for students. These sessions informed the community on definitions, legal provisions, and promoted an institutional reporting unit and awareness raising tools developed at the university. One of the tools is an “Alertomètre”, which classifies behaviours from normal to dangerous.

Additionally, the University of Bordeaux institutional webpage on gender-based violence and discrimination has been fed with some additional information and contacts (local associations, national contacts, legal definitions) and guidelines to inform the community on how to react when somebody is a victim or a witness of violence or discrimination (in the French version).

Among other online resources, there is an exhibition of posters made in the comics book’s format on sexual harassment in academia – in French. It was earlier presented on university campuses.
