Reporting systems

Victim or witness of discrimination, harassment or violence? You can make a report to the Delegate for Equality and the Fight against Discrimination, Harassment and Gender-based and Sexual Violence, who oversees the application of the Charter for Equality, against discrimination, harassment and sexual and gender-based violence.

In October 2021, Sciences Po Grenoble-UGA also signed an agreement with the Grenoble Judicial Court on the handling of reports of sexist and sexual violence. The legal procedure for handling reports is carried out in collaboration with the France Victimes Grenoble association.

The Charter for Equality, against discrimination, harassment and sexist and sexual violence

In May 2018, Sciences Po Grenoble-UGA, the institution's staff, Sciences Po Grenoble-UGA-accredited student associations and elected student representatives wished to embark on a joint process to draw up a Charter for Equality and against Discrimination, adopted by the Board of Directors on May 30, 2018.

 

In view of a resurgence in reports of sexist and sexual violence carried by social networks at the start of 2021, management has decided to strengthen existing measures, particularly in the fight against sexist and sexual violence with the help of elected student representatives and approved associations. On May 9, 2021, the Board of Directors voted a motion validating the proposals to renew, restructure and amplify the actions carried out since 2018. The Charte pour l'Égalité et contre les discriminations (Charter for Equality and against Discrimination) has been extended to include the fight against sexist and sexual violence. This text, modified as part of the "Charters" Working Group, became the "Charter for Equality, against discrimination, harassment and sexist and sexual violence" on June 2, 2021. The meetings, jointly led by the Director and Sophie Latraverse, former Director General of the Défenseur des droits and former Deputy Director of the Legal Department of the HALDE (Haute Autorité de la lutte contre les discriminations), brought together more than 20 volunteer contributors from the Sciences Po Grenoble-UGA community (students, student association representatives, elected student representatives, administrative and teaching staff).

The revised version of the "Charte pour l'Égalité, contre les discriminations, le harcèlement et les violences sexistes et sexuelles" was unanimously adopted on June 17, 2021 by the Sciences Po Grenoble-UGA Technical Committee, on June 28, 2021 by the Conseil des études et de la vie étudiante (CEVIE) and, finally, by the members of the Board of Directors on July 6, 2021.

 

Through this reform of the Charter, Sciences Po Grenoble-UGA, in close coordination with the other Instituts d'études politiques, the UGA, the Rectorat de région and the Ministère de l'enseignement supérieur de la recherche et de l'innovation, is strengthening all the tools and mechanisms designed to combat discrimination, harassment and sexist and sexual violence.
