Harassment and misconduct
Harassment, sexual misconduct and other forms of violence, abuse and discrimination have no place in our University community. Everyone has the right to study and work in a supportive environment that values compassion and integrity.
The University’s statement on harassment and sexual misconduct outlines our commitment to ensuring Leeds is an inclusive and respectful space where everyone feels safe, valued and heard.
