This two-hour awareness session will provide you with the tools to understand sexual and gender-based violence, discrimination, and harassment in higher education and research. It will also teach you how to legally classify these forms of violence and how to respond if you are a victim or a witness. The session will be followed by a presentation on the University of Grenoble Alpes’ reporting system for acts of sexual and gender-based violence, discrimination, and harassment.

How to respond to gender-based and sexual violence, discrimination, and harassment while working on a dissertation

This awareness session will be followed by a workshop designed to delve deeper into the fight against sexual and gender-based violence, discrimination, and harassment in the context of doctoral research. Open exclusively to doctoral students, this two-hour workshop will use role-playing exercises to help participants develop the right reflexes to prevent and respond to violence within the doctoral supervision context. Two workshops, each with a maximum of 20 participants, will take place from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
