LGTBI+

LGBTI+

Complaints of violence on grounds of LGTBIphobia continue to happen in the form of assaults, vexations, violations of sexual and reproductive rights, school bullying or harassment in social networks. The social commitment of public universities plays an active role in combating all forms of inequality and discrimination, and here at UAB we are taking full responsibility. On 10 March 2016 the Governing Council approved the Protocol against sexual harassment and harassment on grounds of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. A year later, on 23 March 2017, the UAB passes the Protocol for use of preferred name aimed at transgender individuals. These protocols and measures are an improvement that needs to be followed by awareness-raising and visibilisation campaigns.

Actions conducted at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona aimed at protecting the LGTBI+ community comply with the provisions of the Law 11/2014 against homophobia, biphobia and transphobia.


Guia per la incorporació de la diversitat sexual i de gènere a les universitats catalanes a partir de la Llei 11/2014

The Guia per la incorporació de la diversitat sexual i de gènere a les universitats catalanes a partir de la Llei 11/2014 has the goal of making it easier for all the actors in university administration to translate into concrete actions what Law 11/2014 stipulates. The guide highlights the importance of introducing attention to sexual and gender diversity in universities to create inclusive environments, generate respectful work and learning environments, promote research and teaching contributing to raising awareness on discriminations and opening new cultural frameworks.
