purple dots
The Rey Juan Carlos University (URJC) joins the Purple Points initiative, an instrument promoted by the Ministry of Equality to involve the whole of society in the fight against gender violence, promoted by the Equality Unit of the URJC for the prevention and awareness of sexist violence in the university environment and for attention and referral in situations that require it.
The Purple Point acts as an 'access point' so that all those women who have been victims or witnesses of an attack, or who simply want information, can come to it, tell what happened and ask for help.
The Violet Points at URJC aim to achieve the following objectives:
- To highlight the position of the URJC in the construction of a university free of sexist violence.
- Creation of spaces free from gender violence.
- To inform about all the resources that both the URJC and external agents make available to women victims of gender violence.
- To create a network of support, trust, respect, support and accompaniment for people affected by gender violence in academic centers and university spaces.
- To involve the entire university community by providing them with tools to address the social problem of inequality and gender-based violence.
