Government commissioner Mariëtte Hamer to visit UM

Have your say on sexual safety

Sexual violence is a serious issue and more and more people are aware of it. How do we behave respectfully towards one another in our work environment, in our classes and in our social activities?

Leading the discussion on this issue is the mission of Mariëtte Hamer, the Government Commissioner for Sexual Transgressive Behaviour and Sexual Violence since April 2022.
