About the social safety awareness campaign
The social safety campaign is aimed at raising awareness of, and helping to recognise and name undesirable behaviour, for and by everyone in the organisation.
The UvA is committed to providing a positive study and work environment in which we treat each other with respect, nobody feels unsafe and everyone can develop their talents.

Confidential advisers
You can contact a confidential adviser, should you have any questions about undesirable behaviour (sexual harassment, aggression, violence, bullying or discrimination), academic integrity or your individual legal status. -
Ombudsperson
The ombudsperson works independently. You can turn to the ombudsperson if there are structural problems and abuses within the UvA. This can be done confidentially and without formalities. -
Social safety at the UvA
We want everyone to feel welcome. For a good and safe work and study environment, it is important that staff and students treat each other with respect and refrain from undesirable behaviour.
