Overview
Page Updated: 19th July 2022
Students, staff and visitors to UCD can now report issues of a Dignity & Respect nature anonymously through the (opens in a new window)UCD Report and Support tool. This is an important new initiative which provides the opportunity for members of the University community and others to make the University aware of incidents of bullying, harassment and sexual harassment that have been experienced or witnessed, without the need to identify oneself or disclose sensitive and personal details.
This tool has been developed in recognition that not all those experiencing bullying, harassment or sexual harassment feel able to come forward to make a formal complaint or engage in an informal means of resolving an issue of this nature.
This tool is the first of its kind in an Irish Higher Education Institution and forms part of the wider Dignity and Respect framework in the University. This initiative will play a key role in supporting the implementation of the University strategy (opens in a new window)“Rising to the Future” as well as the UCD Equality, Diversity and Inclusion strategy where the University in its commitment to continue to promote a culture of dignity and respect and wellbeing for all, and the elimination of all forms of discrimination.
Why Report Though This Tool?
The information provided through the Report and Support tool will be valuable for the University as it strives to create a culture where everyone is treated with dignity and respect and is free from discrimination. The information will be collated and analysed to enable UCD to take steps to support the elimination of bullying, harassment and sexual harassment.
