Help the NUS Women's Campaign - Stop Violence Against Women Students

17 Rhag 2009

The NUS Women's Campaign has launched a survey exploring women students' experiences of harassment, violence, sexual assault and stalking.

The survey aims to uncover the specific experiences of women students in relation to violence, how it affects their education, and to establish how safe or unsafe women students feel in different environments.

They will be launching a research report in the new year summarising our findings. We will also make recommendations for changes to ensure better support for those who have experienced violence as well as strategies for preventing it.

Regardless of whether or not you have experienced any kind of violence or harassment, your answers will help us to understand and deal with issues of violence against women students.

Please help us stop violence against women by filling in this survey.
