Shaping an inclusive and diverse community at ETH Zurich
We are very sorry that you are experiencing this uncomfortable and unfair situation. Holding perpetrators accountable has remained a big challenge to this day. We understand that dealing and talking about these topics is difficult and that maybe the harassed would prefer to just forget the whole thing. We hope that these helping points can help you to hold the perpetrator accountable. In our experience, something that can be very empowering is reading inspiring books with strong female leads, so feel free to get inspired by our selection of good reads below!
If you have experienced or witnessed an ETH member engaging in sexual harassment, discrimination or bullying and do not wish to contact any of the advisory and counselling services, you can submit an anonymous notice through the whistleblowing system. Anonymity is ensured by the external whistleblowing system Vispato by having all data encrypted and stored on servers in Germany.
The ombudspersons are a general contact point for conflicts that cannot be solved by direct communication and for reporting suspected illegal actions. The ombuds office offers advice on the following topics: 1.Workplace conflicts and conflicts involving instructors 2. Whistle blowing in case of suspected illegal action by members of ETH Zurich.
The Research Integrity Advisors (RIA) of the departments offer support to members of the departments in the form of information, advice, training and mediation on issues of good scientific practice.
