Накратко на български

Студентските мрежи за подкрепа при сексуално насилие в университетите и техните стратегии за промяна на институционалните правила се анализират тук. Това помага да се разбере как да се преодолеят бариерите пред жертвите и да се създаде среда с нулева толерантност.

Student networks leading the struggle for universities free of sexual violence: mechanisms to support survivors, inspiring institutional changes for violence prevention

UniswithHearth project’s main goal is to examine in which ways social movements struggling to eradicate sexual violence contribute to the creation of networks of support among victims, inquiring on how different social actors engage, the resistances they face and, overall, how contexts of zero tolerance in which survivors feel empowered to speak up are shaped. The problem being addressed is the sexual harassment in academia and any kind of gender-based violence that may cause someone to suffer as a direct survivor or as a supporting someone. Isolating Gender Violence is also being addressed, as well as the lack of support that sometimes experience when they disclose a case. Specific objectives: 1. The social movements analysed in this project are those referring to sexual violence, usually emerging from students, counting on the support of scholars. Thus, UniswithHearth will analyse the role of Public Sociology in advocating and creating the context for these movements to emerge and be built stronger. 2. To examine university and public policies, programs and protocols against harassment and sexual violence and their potential use for student and social mobilisations. 3. To study the strategies underlying US student support networks to identify elements that have advanced in creating institutional measures aimed at speaking up, believing survivors and taking their side. 4. To uncover effective strategies of the movement against sexual violence in universities and its connection with the administration and institutions beyond the academy. 5. To analyse the emergence and articulation of university networks of support to overcome barriers that prevent them from giving voice to survivors, and their promising transferability to achieve significant effect on institutional and legislative manners of dealing with sexual assault.

Цел на проекта

The problem of sexual violence in universities and institutions is getting international attention. In this watershed moment, European Student Networks of Support (SNS) are progressively acting to prevent and face this problem. This project aims (1) to study in which ways do social movements struggle to eradicate sexual violence to contribute to the creation of networks of support in higher education; inquiring on social actors engaged, resistances faced and overall, how are contexts of zero tolerance in which victims feel empowered to speak up shaped. Power structures and complicities are often limiting student movements from effective organizing in preventing harassment. Drawing from this, the project pretends (2) to uncover effective strategies and mechanisms of SNS and the movement against sexual violence in universities, focusing on how it successfully performs and got to be so widely recognized. The emergence of these social movements count on the support of active bystanders, including scholars who develop research and action for and with the public, committed with improving the existing civil society worldwide. In this line, (3) the role of public sociology in promoting SNS is also explored. Their empowerment is influencing not only academic policies against sexual violence but also political changes, legislations. Thus, impact is expected on three realms: on personal and professional success of direct and second order victims of sexual harassment in academia; on effective university policies; as well as on regulations beyond academic institutions. The gap to be filled (in Europe) focuses on the emerging and articulation of Student Networks of Support illustrating the knowledge of their development and repercussion while successfully influencing administrations, political spheres and legislations, making the EU leader not only in social science research but also in contributing to foster pioneer regulations against gender-based violence.
