✨ Strengthening Gender-Responsive Justice in Higher Education! ✨
Bohol Island State University (BISU) proudly participates in the Training and Orientation for Committees on Decorum and Investigation (CODIs) of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) on Handling Gender-Based Sexual Harassment (GBSH) Cases, organized by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Gender and Development (GAD) Focal Point System – Central Office.
📍 Sotogrande Hotel, Iloilo City
📚 The training covers essential topics on the Legal and Policy Framework on GBSH in HEIs, Roles and Responsibilities of CODI, Procedures in Handling CODI Cases, Gender-Responsive Approaches in Handling GBV Cases, as well as case studies, mock case handling, and processing workshops.
This capacity-building activity reinforces the commitment of HEIs to ensure that complaints and cases involving gender-based sexual harassment are handled with fairness, confidentiality, due process, sensitivity, and a gender-responsive approach.
💜 Through continuous learning and strengthened CODI mechanisms, we move closer to creating safe, inclusive, respectful, and gender-responsive higher education institutions for all.
Together, let us strengthen our CODIs. Together, let us uphold dignity, justice, and safe spaces. 💜
