Harassment, gender-based or sexual violence, discrimination, sexist behaviour, physical or verbal violence, cyberbullying, psychosocial risks… Are you a victim of or witness to a situation that concerns you? There are people and support systems available to listen to you, advise you, guide you and support you.
Depending on your situation and status, several options are available to you. You do not need to wait for a situation to become more serious before speaking about it or seeking advice.
If you are a witness, you can also take action: reporting a situation or contacting someone for support can help protect and assist a person experiencing difficulties.

You wish to report a situation
If you are a victim of or witness to harassment, gender-based or sexual violence, discrimination, racism, antisemitism, physical or verbal violence, cyberviolence, cyberbullying or psychosocial risks, you may also use Université Paris Cité’s reporting system.
Université Paris Cité reporting platform
The platform enables both victims and witnesses to bring a situation to the University’s attention so that it can be
reviewed and the person concerned can be directed to the appropriate support and assistance.
Access the reporting platform: https://signalement.app.u-pariscite.fr
Full description of the Université Paris Cité reporting platform
Do not hesitate to use this system. Different courses of action are available: it is essential not to remain passive when faced with a concerning situation, whether you are directly affected or a witness.
If you are a CNRS staff member
CNRS staff members also have access to a dedicated reporting system.
You can report a situation or contact the CNRS reporting service at:
CNRS staff members hosted at the IPGP may, of course, also contact the IPGP resource persons listed
on this page.
Victim or witness: do not wait to speak up. It is not always easy to determine whether the situation you are
facing legally constitutes harassment, discrimination, gender-based or sexual violence, or another situation requiring
support. You do not need to have already determined the legal nature of the incident or to be certain of its seriousness before contacting someone. Doubts, discomfort, repeated behaviour or a situation you have witnessed may all be reasons toseek advice.
