As part of measures to help curtail sexual harassment on its campus, the University of Ghana has created an anonymous e-mail address and a WhatsApp platform to facilitate and create easy avenues for students to report instances of sexual harassment.
The Vice-Chancellor of the University, Professor Ebenezer Oduro Owusu, said the University is particularly encouraging people who may have fallen victim to such unfortunate incidents to take advantage of the sites and report the cases for redress. Professor Owusu was addressing the graduation of the first batch of 385 undergraduates of the College of Humanities in Accra yesterday.
Referring to recent media allegations of sexual harassment involving some Faculty Members of the university, Prof. Owusu said Management of the university had responded by taking steps to enforce its Anti-sexual Harassment Regulations.
