Fund Type
Alberta’s government agrees with student leaders from across the province that more needs to be done to address sexual violence in campus communities. Post-secondary institutions are being asked to revisit and revise their sexual violence policies to ensure best practices are implemented. This funding will support the development of a new provincewide survey to give us a better understanding of the state of sexual violence and harassment in Alberta’s post-secondary communities. A new grant of $2.5 million will be provided to post-secondary institutions to support training and awareness programs on campuses.
Advanced Education, in collaboration with Culture and Status of Women, will work with post-secondary institutions to develop the survey to ensure it provides valuable information regarding sexual violence within campus communities.
