Welcome to Stand Together, SHU’s blog regarding Hate Crime and Harassment.
Who are we?
This blog is run by students, who have created these posts in order to raise awareness around the situations involving Hate Crime or harassment that are important to them.
What is the aim?
The aim of this blog is a safe space to raise awareness of Hate Crime and Harassment that students are interested in or are affected by. This can be through personal experience; all information is provided freely and if personal stories are wanting to be shared this can be done anonymously.
Why does the Blog exist?
Standing Together is SHU’s response to the Universities UK Changing the Culture initiative. This initiative was created as there were many cases of harassment, hate crime, or sexual violence, and universities may not always have responded effectively. Through Standing together SHU wishes to raise awareness and let students know that they won’t be unheard. Someone will be there, someone will listen.
