Item type:Publication, Sexuelle Belästigung im Hochschulkontext(2025-06-15); ; Sexuelle Belästigung im Hochschulkontext ist ein weit verbreitetes, jedoch oft nicht gemeldetes Problem. Das EU-geförderte Forschungsprojekt Uni4Equity untersucht, wie Hochschulen ihre Strukturen, Präventionsmaßnahmen und Reaktionsmechanismen verbessern können, um sexuelle Belästigung effektiver zu erkennen, zu erfassen und ihr entgegenzuwirken. Dieser Beitrag präsentiert die ersten Forschungsergebnisse der initialen Projektphase an der Hochschule Burgenland und stellt darauf aufbauend Handlungsempfehlungen für Hochschulen vor. Neben der Verbesserung von Meldeprozessen und einer verstärkten Sichtbarmachung von Ansprechpersonen ist die Implementierung gezielter Schulungen für Studierende und Mitarbeitende essenziell. Erste Maßnahmen innerhalb des Projekts Uni4Equity zeigen, dass Sensibilisierung und strukturelle Anpassungen das Bewusstsein und die Handlungsmöglichkeiten der Mitglieder der teilnehmenden Hochschulen bereits positiv beeinflussen konnten. Dennoch bleiben langfristige Herausforderungen bestehen, insbesondere in Hinblick auf die nachhaltige Verankerung einer „Culture of Care“.4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Strengthening universities response to sexual harassment with an equity approach: the UNI4EQUITY mixed-methods study protocol(2025-07) ;Vives-Cases, Carmen ;Berbegal Bernabeu Marina ;Pérez Martínez Vanesa ;Neves, SofiaMuñoz-Haba, AitanaPreventing online and offline sexual harassment (SH) is a public health priority, due to its worldwide magnitude and short- and long-term consequences to the victims and survivors. Universities are environments that may facilitate different forms of conflicts, including SH, but they also play a key role in preventing and addressing them. This paper describes ‘Uni4Equity’, a European project funded by the CERV-2022-DAPHNE Programme of the European Union (Ref. 101094121-Uni4Equity) aimed to reinforce universities’ readiness to identify, map and respond to online and offline SH at workplace and other relevant settings (classrooms, digital space), with an explicit (but not exclusive) focus on minority social groups. More specifically, the project will address the research needs of conducting multidimensional diagnosis of SH at universities (scale and determinants) as a basis for preventive actions; assessing the effectiveness of preventive interventions such as social media campaigns and training workshops; creating a university culture that actively rejects SH; improving access to existing support services; and contributing to the acknowledgement of universities as an asset in preventing this issue.Scopus© Citations 2 7 2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, “Sexual harassment definitely involves a hierarchical transgression”: Key informants´ discourses on sexual harassment in European universities(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2026-08-12) ;Ríos-Albert, Esther ;Cerdán-Torregrosa, Ariadna ;Espinar-Ruiz, Eva ;Jaskulska, SylwiaJankowiak, BarbaraUnderstanding how university members conceptualize sexual harassment is crucial, as their perceptions influence recognition, reporting, and response to the issue. The aim of this study was to explore the discourses of key university informants about sexual harassment within universities, including student representatives, university staff, and institutional representatives in equality and diversity. A qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews (November 2023 to April 2024) with 90 key informants from six universities located in Austria, Belgium, Italy, Poland, Portugal, and Spain. Data were analyzed using Critical Discourse Analysis. Results show that sexual harassment is perceived as a multidimensional phenomenon encompassing physical, verbal, non-verbal, offline, and online behaviors. Participants’ accounts consistently emphasized the transgression of interpersonal boundaries, the absence of consent, power imbalances, and negative consequences on victims-survivors’ well-being. Participants’ definitions fell along a continuum of three discursive approaches— normative, experience-based, and integrative—which varied according to gender and institutional role. Regarding potential victim-survivors, two discourses emerged: an intersectional discourse frames vulnerability as the result of overlapping social inequalities—such as gender, age, hierarchical position, sexual orientation, ethnicity, migration background, disability, and/or economic dependence; and a situational discourse emphasizing risks associated with structural dynamics of academia, including hierarchy and dependency, regardless of individual characteristics. Concerning potential perpetrators, a hierarchical discourse was dominant among participants, alluding to men in positions of authority and leadership within the university. Two minoritarian and alternative discourses emerged: a peer perpetration discourse, situating harassment among individuals of similar hierarchical status, particularly students; and a psychological characteristics discourse, explaining perpetration in terms of individual traits, such as narcissism, manipulation, or egocentrism. Our findings suggest the need for university policies that integrate intersectional and gender-transformative perspectives and promote egalitarian and safer academic environments.2
