The policy provides for sanctions against individuals found to have engaged in discriminatory conduct, in accordance with applicable regulations and university policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Regulations Establish Procedures for Preventing and Addressing Violence<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"905\" height=\"521\" src=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-37.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8641\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7381615598885793;width:624px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-37.png 905w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-37-300x173.png 300w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-37-768x442.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 905px) 100vw, 905px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rector&#8217;s Regulation No. 24 of 2024.

However, it was subsequently revoked and replaced by <strong>Rector&#8217;s Regulation No. 115 of 2024 concerning the Prevention and Handling of Violence within UNNES<\/strong>. The newer regulation was established on October 30, 2024, and is listed as active in the university&#8217;s Legal Documentation and Information Network (JDIH).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The updated regulation provides a more current institutional framework for addressing violence on campus. This distinction is important because the university&#8217;s anti-discrimination efforts should be understood in light of its latest applicable policies rather than relying exclusively on an earlier regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"257\" src=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-35-1024x257.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8639\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4;width:624px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-35-1024x257.png 1024w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-35-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-35-766x192.png 766w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-35.png 1305w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/pengaduan\/\">https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/pengaduan\/<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">UNNES has established a Task Force for the Prevention and Handling of Violence (Satgas PPK) under Rector&#8217;s Decree No. T\/47\/UN37\/HK.02\/2025 for the 2025\u20132026 period. The task force is responsible for preventing and addressing violence within the university and reporting its activities to the Rector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Reporting and Support Mechanisms Help Implement the Policies<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">To support implementation, UNNES provides official complaint channels for reporting sexual violence and other concerns through its Task Force for the Prevention and Handling of Violence (Satgas PPK). Reports can be submitted through complaint forms and hotlines available at <a href=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/pengaduan\">unnes.ac.id\/pengaduan<\/a>. The university also facilitates public complaints through <a href=\"https:\/\/lapor.unnes.ac.id\/\">lapor.unnes.ac.id<\/a>, alongside the national LAPOR! system and the university&#8217;s public relations office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">These mechanisms are important because a written policy is most effective when members of the university community know where to seek assistance and how to report incidents. The availability of reporting channels provides a formal route for raising concerns, while dedicated task-force and support services help the university respond to cases within its institutional responsibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">UNNES&#8217;s circular also identifies counseling services, the PPKS Task Force, and the Disability Service Unit (ULD) as important points of support for receiving complaints, providing assistance, and following up on discrimination-related concerns or violations of individual rights.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Disability Support and Religious Diversity Promote Inclusion<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">UNNES&#8217;s commitment to inclusion also extends to accessibility for people with disabilities and respect for religious diversity. Rector&#8217;s Regulation No. 116 of 2024 addresses educational services for students with disabilities and is listed as active in the university&#8217;s JDIH. This regulation provides a formal basis for supporting students with disabilities and promoting more accessible educational services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The university has also documented the availability of interfaith prayer facilities as part of its efforts to accommodate religious diversity. In addition, UNNES provides opportunities for students to participate in religious communities and activities, supporting an environment in which different beliefs can be respected.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"449\" src=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-40-1024x449.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8644\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.2857142857142856;width:624px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-40-1024x449.png 1024w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-40-300x132.png 300w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-40-766x336.png 766w, https:\/\/unnes.ac.id\/sdgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2026\/11\/image-40.png 1348w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/linikampus.com\/2023\/06\/16\/heri-yanto-pimpin-peresmian-rumah-ibadah-lintas-agama-unnes\/\">https:\/\/linikampus.com\/2023\/06\/16\/heri-yanto-pimpin-peresmian-rumah-ibadah-lintas-agama-unnes\/<\/a>\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">These initiatives complement the university&#8217;s anti-discrimination policies by addressing practical barriers to participation.
