Sexualized Violence Prevention and Response

Yukon University recognizes that the College is an environment in which power imbalances are inherent. Yukon University recognizes that people's experiences will be affected by factors such as access to power and privilege, sex, sexual identity, gender identity or expression, racialization, age, family status, religion, faith, ability, disability, national or ethnic origin, indigeneity, immigration status, socio-economic status, class and language. These factors, along with an individual's personal history, impact individual experiences of sexualized violence, the ability to access supports and choices with regard to recourse. Yukon University will take this into account when carrying out its responsibilities under this policy.
