Their age and life style make female students to a high risk target for sexual harassment and violence! At the same time sexual victimisation of female students during their work and life at universities is still a lack of research in Europe and psycho-social consequences due to sexual offences are not yet considered sufficiently by European universities.

This is the intention of this project: By analysing the qualitative and quantitative data in a comparative survey it aims to rising awareness for the victimisation of female students. In the consequence this will support universities in their efforts to decrease sexual violence at universities, to help victims and to implement adequate instruments of prevention and intervention.

The research-project „Gender Based Violence, Stalking and Fear of Crime“ is funded by the European Commission for 36 month with a consortium of five European partners.
