Can I file a report as a third party and/or anonymously?

Yes. Third-party* and/or anonymous reports may be investigated where sufficient evidence existsÌýand where such an investigation would not violate procedural fairness.ÌýThird-party and/or anonymous reports cannot go to mediation.ÌýAn individual identified as the person who directly experiencedÌýsexual violence inÌýa third-party or anonymous report has the right to be informed of an investigation triggered by such a report and can chooseÌýwhether or notÌýto participate in the process.Ìý

In an investigation process, please note that third-party and/or anonymous reporters will not receive the investigation report at the end of the investigation or information about the resolution of the complaint.

*A third-party report is a report made by someone other than the person alleged to have experienced sexual violence.

I’m not sure whether I want to file a report through ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ’s Policy against Sexual Violence. What else can I do?

  • Seek support
    Take care of yourself and know that you don’t have to deal with sexual violence alone. Whether or not you decide to make a formal report through ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ’s Policy against Sexual Violence, seek support from your friends, family, and ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ support services.
  • Try to write down what happened
    In as much detail as possible, write down what happened, where and when it happened, and who was present. You can provide this documentation if you decide to file a formal report through ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ’s Policy against Sexual Violence later on.
