Universities Supporting Victims of Sexual Violence (USVSV): Training for Sustainable Student Services
³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ
This project will design, develop and pilot new training for university staff on how to respond to sexual violence experienced by students. The aim is for staff to become effective ¡°first responders¡± to students¡¯ reports of sexual violence. Security, bar and refectory staff, accommodation and counselling services will be included. Training will be integrated into staff development to ensure that staff can respond sensitively and effectively. ¡°All universities have a responsibility to understand that sexual harassment and violence are issues that need to be challenged, and that excellent training is required for university staff to support and respond to a student disclosing such abuse,¡± said Ruth Caleb, head of counselling at Brunel University London. Brunel and the University of Sussex will lead a review of research on best practice in first responder support and referral. Findings will be reported to other project partners ¨C seven universities in Greece, Italy, Spain and the UK ¨C each of which will then design schemes appropriate for their country and context. These will be piloted in 14 universities. The project¡¯s ultimate goal is to share good practice and policy across Europe.
