The Number of Sexual Assault/Harassment/Violation Cases in the University of the Philippines

Requested from UPD by I. Aguirre at 06:00 PM on Nov 17, 2020.
Purpose: Undergraduate Thesis for the Ateneo De Manila University (170047, Double Major: AB DS & AB PSY)
Date of Coverage: 11/17/2010 - 11/17/2020
Tracking no: #UPD-765278991050

Aguirre 06:00 PM, Nov 17, 2020 

Greetings! I hope you are safe and well!

May I request information for the total number of cases on University Sexual Assault/Violation/Harassment? This includes the number of cases witnessed, cases officially reported, and cases that have gone through a full trial (as well as the final verdicts, and if possible, the length of each case process). Percentages of cases per UP Campus would be of great assistance for my thesis, especially those of Diliman.

Also, a list of laws and revisions regarding the definitions, case processing, and support mechanisms of the university would be of aid.
