SUPPORTER Recommendations for teachers and lecturers in universities of sport and faculties of sport to advance gender equality

Description

Teachers play a vital role in ensuring that all university students are protected from gender-based violence, are aware of where to seek support, and how to report incidents. They also play a key role in fostering an institutional culture that promotes inclusivity and student safety. Teachers are encouraged to rely on their institution’s Gender Equality Plan (GEP) and policy framework to guide their efforts.
