Statement on Gender-Based Violence in Iran
Dear Nipissing Students, Staff, and Faculty Members,
The ongoing acts of violence against women in Iran are deeply concerning and distressing to many members of our university community, especially for NU students, staff, and faculty members from Iran or those with close ties to the country.
Nipissing University values equity, inclusivity, and condemns violence in all forms. Nipissing stands with our students, faculty, and staff who have spoken out against gender-based violence in Iran and here at home.
Please know that the university is here to support you. There are many resources and support services available to our community which I encourage you to access as needed.
Supports
- Supports for students can be found at: Need Help Now | Nipissing University
- Supports for employees are available through the Humanacare Employee Assistance Program: Humanacare (Employee Assistance Program) | Nipissing University
Sincerely,
Kevin B. Wamsley, PhD
President & Vice-Chancellor
