Respect at universities I. is a practically oriented, interactive workshop aimed at providing employees with information and tools that comprise a preventive component in addressing sexual harassment, bullying, and violence in academic environments. The workshop serves as an introduction to the topic of sexual harassment. Together, we will discuss what can be considered as sexual harassment and violence, on both the part of university employees and university students. We will explore what to do if you witness problematic behavior, how to interact with victims and perpetrators of these pathological behaviors, and whom to turn to for help. You will engage in role-playing scenarios, be presented with practical information from both the Czech Republic and abroad, share attitudes and opinions, and all leave better equipped to not be part of the problem.
