The lilac points are spaces at university festivals and other events where the public is made aware, information is given to those who need it, and people who report a male aggression are accompanied.Ìý

This resource is an initiative of the Telecommunication School's Student Delegation.Ìý

They also have an important symbolic function because they show the rejection of male violence and offer a space for support. Ìý

'Voces de cambio'Traing Programme

An initiative linked to the University of Vigo’s Protocol for the Prevention of Sexual and Gender-Based Harassment, implemented in the 2025/2026 academic year with the voluntary participation of eleven faculties and funded by the State Pact against Gender-Based Violence.

This is a face-to-face, dynamic training programme that provides practical resources to raise awareness and equip students with the skills to identify and understand gender-based violence in the university context, with particular emphasis on sexual harassment and harassment on the grounds of sex. It also fosters the development of tools to recognise, prevent, and respond to such situations in their daily lives.
