University of Cambridge Statement
There is no place for any form of harassment or sexual misconduct at the University of Cambridge. The University is committed to creating and maintaining a safe, welcoming, inclusive and diverse community that nurtures a culture in which we treat one another with courtesy and consideration. All members of the University community must be able to thrive without fear of sexual violence, abuse, coercive behaviour or related misconduct.
Any form of harassment or sexual misconduct is unacceptable and contrary to the values and ideals of our shared community. The University will work continuously to prevent harassment and sexual misconduct and to respond to any instances of it. Staff and students must feel able to make disclosures and report harassment and sexual misconduct without fear of reprisal. Support will be available to help those in the process of doing so and for anyone recovering from the impact of an incident of harassment or sexual misconduct.
The collegiate University's mission can only be achieved through collaboration. All members of the University community have an individual and a collective responsibility to ensure that their professional relationships are sensitive to the imbalances of power that exist within any organisation, and to promote a culture of inclusivity.
