Manifesto prepared by the Network of Gender Equality Units for University Excellence (RUIGEU), on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women to be held on November 25.
November 25th, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, is a historic and collective event in which universities also take part to remind us of our responsibility and to act as a driver of change and transformation toward a more just society free of gender-based violence. Specifically, it is our duty to foster spaces for deep debate and to promote critical research on the impacts and consequences of gender-based violence, as well as to raise awareness that such violence occurs in all spheres, including the university environment, and across all social strata, regardless of socioeconomic background.
