Protection from sexualised discrimination and violence

Sexualized discrimination and violence continue to be a social problem from which universities as places of study and work are not exempt.

The University of Kassel has issued a "Guideline for Protection against Discrimination and Sexualized Violence at the University of Kassel" (German language only) to protect its employees, students and doctoral candidates.

The University of Kassel attaches great importance to a trusting cooperation and a respectful as well as appreciative interaction. Discrimination, sexual harassment and violence are illegal. It is the goal of the University of Kassel to offer its members and relatives help in the event of assault.
