Discrimination, harassment, and gender-based violence: who to contact

 Discriminazioni, molestie e violenze di genere: a chi rivolgersi

All forms of discrimination, harassment, and gender-based violence should be reported.

Those who work and study at the University of Padua can contact the University's protection and guarantee bodies (CUG, Trusted Counselor, Ombudsman).

In synergy with the protection and guarantee bodies, there are dedicated helpdesks that work in an integrated manner and offer free listening and support to members of the academic community.

The opening of other locations is planned as the University intends to offer equal opportunities to all its students, reaching also the campuses outside Padua.

Furthermore, the University of Padua operates the Scup  for prevention, support, counseling, and clinical intervention activities in Padua and in the decentralized branches in Rovigo, Treviso, and Vicenza.

For legal support, networking with social and health services, law enforcement agencies, lawyers, courts, and other institutions involved, you can contact the Anti-Violence Centre of the Municipality of Padua.
