It will also enable you to understand the legal definition of these forms of violence and how to react if you are a victim or witness. It will be complemented by a presentation of the UGA's reporting system for VSS, discrimination, and harassment.

Knowing how to react to sexist and sexual violence, discrimination and harassment in the context of the thesis
