Working Group to End Sexual Violence and Harassment
MIC Working Group to End Sexual Violence and Harassment oversees the implementation of the Framework for Consent in HEIs; Framework for Consent in HEIs: Safe, Respectful, Supportive and Positive - Ending Sexual Harassment in Irish Higher Education Institutions.
Membership comprises of key stakeholders including academics, EDII, student support services, the Student’s Union, HR and external specialist agencies. The vision of the Framework is to ensure an institutional campus culture which is safe, respectful and supportive.
MIC values and promotes a culture where every individual is treated with dignity and respect, and free from harassment and bullying. The higher education student experience must not only be concerned with the pursuit of academic excellence, but also to prepare students to engage with and make positive contributions to society.
As part of MIC’s response to the Framework, the college is working to ensure that all students and staff have access to education and support in the area of consent. Supporting the safety, health and wellbeing of our students and staff is our top priority at MIC.
