Speak Out
Speak Out is an online and anonymous reporting tool available for students and staff to disclose incidents of bullying, cyberbullying, harassment, discrimination, hate crime, coercive behaviour/control, stalking, assault, sexual harassment, sexual assault, and rape in Irish higher education institutions. You will be able to provide information on when the incident took place, what type of behaviour occurred, and whether you have sought support. Following the completion of the reporting tool, Speak Out will also help you to find other supports and reporting options, should you wish to use them.
Speak Out is being rolled out at higher education institutions this year, and each institution will have its own URL for students and staff to report the incident.
Check with your Student Services to see if this tool is available on your campus.
