Create statutory procedures for sexual offence complaints in all universities

Petition Details

We are calling for a statutory procedures written by the government in partnership with survivors of, professional advocates against, and experts in sexual violence and abuse, that every university in the UK is mandated to follow when investigating complaints of sexual offences.

Additional Information

Self-serving institutions are not listening. Their indifference to the safety of their students is evidenced by absent safeguarding policies, difficult reporting procedures, inadequate investigations, and toxic campus environments. Many of those who are responsible for supporting students have proven to be incompetent at best, and complicit at worst. The government must step in and demand change to address the inconsistencies in student safety and support across universities in the UK.
