UVic Vikes Athletics and Recreation, a department within Student Affairs, is partnering with the Office of Equity and Human Rights to champion sexualized violence prevention
through an education and training campaign.
A host of activities are planned for Sexualized Violence Awareness Week to raise awareness about preventing the pervasive problem. The week underscores the fact that sexualized
violence is unacceptable and that there are tangible ways we can all build a safe, supportive and respectful environment.
The Board of Governors has approved a new policy on the prevention, education and response to sexualized violence for the University of Victoria, marking the next step toward the
policy’s adoption and implementation in May.
Sexualized violence is unacceptable and prohibited at UVic. In its work to address sexualized violence as a significant and systemic societal and campus issue, the university is
inviting comment on a draft policy to be released Feb. 6, which will apply to all campus members.
