Preventing and tackling bullying and harassment
At the University of Stirling, we are committed to ensuring that all students and staff – as part of a positive, safe and enriching “Stirling Experience” - can study, work, research and participate in an environment that supports them to succeed and feel fulfilled.
We aim to create a University culture where tolerance, empathy and mutual respect for diversity are central to all aspects of University life.
This website summarises our approach to tackling and preventing bullying and harassment for our community, along with providing information about support available for those affected.
