dc.description.abstract | Research globally shows high levels of sexual violence (SV)
at universities, which encompasses a wide range of acts: verbal
comments and requests, non-verbal displays, quid pro quo acts,
unwanted physical contact and rape. It has serious consequences
for mental and physical health of students, including their
academic achievements. Few studies in Serbia suggest that SV is
present at the universities, but this topic is still under-researched.
Serbian universities are often underequipped to recognize SV
and provide support to victims; consequently, students are
not encouraged to report and seek assistance. In order to raise
awareness about SV at the universities and better equip Serbian
universities to prevent and tackle cases of SV and support
victims, Victimology Society of Serbia implement the project
Sexual violence at the universities in Serbia: Raising awareness
and developing innovative mechanisms of victim support. The
project consists of two parts: research aimed at gathering data
on extent and nature of SV against students at the universities
and existing university policies and care pathways, and evidencebased intervention aimed at building capacity of university staff
for proper response to SV cases, strengthening existing policies
16
and practices at the universities related to SV, and establishing
cooperation among universities and victim support services
in order to secure timely support for victims. Research was
conducted online from March to May 2021 on a sample of 1597
students in four university centers in Serbia. Data on students’
experiences of SV victimization, their awareness about SV and
existing mechanisms for assistance and support were collected.
The aim of the round table is to present the project, and to focus
on so far challenges and results through sharing experiences in
data collection, some methodological issues and preliminary
research findings, as well as challenges in developing and applying
mechanisms for addressing cases of SV against students. | sr |
