Review of the UCT Inclusivity Policy for Sexual Orientation

Introduction

The University of Cape Town Inclusivity Policy for Sexual Orientation is due for review.

The purpose of the review is to:

1) determine whether a policy is still needed or if it should be combined with another administrative policy;

2) determine whether the purpose and goal of the policy is still being met;

3) determine whether changes are required to improve the effectiveness or clarity of the policy and procedures; and

4) to ensure that appropriate education, monitoring and ongoing review of the policy is occurring.

As a member of the university community, you are invited to provide comment and/or recommendations on each section of the policy.

This survey is anonymous. Do not provide your name or identifying information in the survey. This survey tool will not collect IP addresses. In this way all responses remain completely secure which means that no one will be able to identify you or your answers, and no one will know whether or not you participated in the study.
