The result is a persistent gap between formal commitments and the lived realities of staff and students. The GenderSAFE Institutional Assessment Tool provides a structured framework to evaluate an organisation’s capacity and progress in addressing gender-based violence and supports institutions in adopting coherent\, sustainable strategies across prevention\, protection\, provision of services\, prosecution\, partnerships\, and policy (7P model).  \nJoin us on Wednesday\, 26 November at 11.00 CET to explore how this tool can turn reflection into action. You’ll learn how the self-assessment is structured\, what kind of tailored feedback institutions receive\, tips and advice on completing the assessment\, and how repeating the exercise over time can support meaningful development and inform policy cycles. Universities that have already tested the tool will share their experience\, offering practical insight into its usefulness\, added value and next steps.  \nThe session brings together those involved in the development and early testing of the tool: Marcela Linková (Czech Academy of Sciences)\, Panagiota Polykarpou (Yellow Window)\, Iveta Bayerová (Charles University) and Rachel Payne & Jennifer Kirman (Oxford Brookes University).
