Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES) reaffirms its unwavering commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion through a series of comprehensive policies and actions designed to eliminate discrimination and promote gender equality across the university community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UNNES upholds an anti-discrimination policy, embedded in both institutional practice and formal regulations, ensuring that every student, staff member, and faculty member is treated with fairness, dignity, and respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The university\u2019s official stance is articulated in the Circular Letter Number B\/996\/UN37\/KP.06.05\/2024<\/a>, which outlines UNNES\u2019s commitment to being an inclusive and anti-discriminatory campus. The letter affirms that discrimination\u2014on the basis of gender, disability, ethnicity, religion, or other identities\u2014has no place in the academic environment of UNNES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This policy framework is further reinforced by Rector\u2019s Regulation Number 24 of 2021 on the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence<\/mark><\/strong><\/a>, which explicitly prohibits discrimination, harassment, and any actions that hinder equal participation in academic activities. The regulation mandates comprehensive prevention mechanisms, complaint procedures, and sanctions for violators, ensuring a safe and respectful academic environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UNNES also implements Rector\u2019s Regulation Number 115 of 2024<\/mark><\/strong>,<\/a> which governs anti-harassment and equality practices, particularly the provision of counseling, advocacy, and reporting services for victims of discrimination or violence. These efforts are part of a coherent institutional policy aimed at fostering a secure and inclusive educational ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To operationalize these policies, UNNES established the Task Force for the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence (PPKS)<\/mark><\/strong><\/a>, a dedicated unit that implements, monitors, and enforces anti-discrimination and anti-harassment measures across all faculties and departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The task force collaborates closely with the Language, Education, Training, Career, Counseling, and Disability Service Center (PLBPP) and other campus units to ensure that victims receive comprehensive support \u2014 including counseling, legal assistance, and academic accommodations where necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accessible complaint channels are integrated with national reporting systems, ensuring that all cases of discrimination and harassment are handled transparently and in line with legal standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
