Policies Protecting Those Reporting Discrimination at Universitas Padjadjaran ensure that all members of the university community can safely report incidents of discrimination without fear of retaliation or disadvantage. Unpad upholds strict confidentiality and protection measures for individuals who come forward with reports, whether related to education, employment, or campus life. The policy promotes fairness, transparency, and accountability in handling such cases, reinforcing a culture of respect and integrity.
Establishment of the Task Force for the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence (Satgas PPKS)
Universitas Padjadjaran has established the Task Force for the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence (Satgas PPKS) as an official institutional body responsible for addressing reports of discrimination and sexual violence in a safe, professional, and equitable manner. The task force is composed of trained representatives from faculty members, administrative staff, and students who possess expertise in victim support and ethical case management. Its establishment ensures that whistleblowers and victims are fully protected from intimidation, stigma, or any adverse consequences related to their academic or employment status.
Furthermore, the creation of Satgas PPKS reinforces the university’s non-retaliation policy, which strictly prohibits any retaliatory actions against individuals who report or testify about discrimination or harassment. Reporting mechanisms are designed to maintain confidentiality through secure and independent systems, ensuring that every individual feels protected and empowered to speak up. Through this initiative, Universitas Padjadjaran demonstrates its commitment to justice, transparency, and campus safety.
Educational and Public Awareness Activities on the Prevention of Sexual Violence on Campus
Universitas Padjadjaran actively conducts educational programs and public awareness campaigns to promote collective understanding and engagement in preventing sexual violence and discrimination within the university community. These initiatives involve faculty, staff, students, and surrounding communities through seminars, public discussions, workshops, and social campaigns that enhance awareness of gender-based violence and discrimination issues. Through these efforts, Unpad cultivates a safe, respectful, and responsive campus culture that prioritizes dignity, equality, and mutual respect.
During these activities, participants receive information about reporting mechanisms and protection services for victims and whistleblowers, including access to counseling, legal assistance, and psychological support. This approach ensures that individuals who report discrimination or harassment are safeguarded from academic, social, or professional disadvantages. The initiative reflects Unpad’s implementation of a strong protection policy for those reporting discrimination, embodying the university’s values of safety, inclusivity, and empowerment.
