Towards A Zero Tolerance Approach - A Good Practice Guide

Join us for the launch of Towards a Zero Tolerance Approach: A Good Practice Guide to the implementation of "Safe, Respectful, Supportive and Positive – Ending Sexual Violence and Harassment in Higher Education" (the Framework).

WHEN: Wednesday, April 26th 2023

WHERE: Irish Architectural Archive 45 Merrion Square East D02 VY60 Dublin 2

HOW: Register for tickets on Eventbrite here 

Speakers include:

- Aoife Grimes, Project Coordinator of NWC’s ESHTE project

- Prof Louise Crowley, UCC

- Suzanne Walker, Higher Education Authority

- Dr Anna Bull, University of York (via video message)

- Orla O’Connor, Director, NWC

This Guide provides an overview for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), and the organisations they work with, on what effective implementation of the Framework could look like.

The Good Practice Guide has been supported by the Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science. It is based on extensive consultation with the National Advisory Committee on ending sexual violence in higher education and provides in depth, practical advice for those who are working towards the implementation of the Framework in HEIs across the country.

The launch of the guide will consist of a presentation of the key elements of the guide and reflections and advice from speakers who work in the sector both in Ireland and abroad. This will be followed by an hour long workshop on how to use the Guide in your implementation work within your HEI.

Please let us know if you have any accessibility requirements or need ISL by contacting Susan McCormack, susanmcc@nwci.ie before 18th April.
