On this occasion, the Dean also emphasized the importance of all leaders’ understanding of the various regulations that are the basis for the implementation of the prevention and handling of sexual violence in the university environment. Some of the regulations that were socialized include:

Through the presentation, the participants were invited to understand the forms of sexual violence, reporting mechanisms, case handling flows, and preventive measures that need to be taken at the faculty and work unit levels.
The Dean of FPH UNDIP also reminded that leaders and structural officials must be role models in maintaining ethics, professionalism, and healthy relationships in the work and academic environment. The Dean emphasized that all leaders and structural elements do not stop at the leadership level only, but also socialize material on the prevention and handling of sexual violence to all employees in their respective units and to all students. In addition, each element of leadership is asked to be more sensitive to the potential for violence, including creating a safe space for victims and witnesses to submit reports without fear.
This socialization activity is expected to strengthen the synergy between units within FPH UNDIP in realizing an inclusive and violence-free campus. FPH UNDIP is committed to continuing to educate, strengthen the system, and provide assistance so that efforts to prevent and handle sexual violence can run optimally and sustainably.
