Join us for structured comments and open dialogue about sex, violence, and justice at the University of Edinburgh. As a culmination of our global #16DaysofActivism against gender-based violence international blogathon, we have invited senior management, student activists, and researchers to reflect on questions of sexual violence and harassment at the UoE. Join a group committed to change on our campus to discuss the current campus climate, what needs to be changed, and how. Display tables will introduce current and ongoing campaigns at the UoE. The event includes a small reception. All are welcome!

John Devaney, Head, SPS (School of Social and Political Science)
