Objectives of the ICC:
- Ensuring a Safe and Supportive Environment: The primary ambition of the ICC is to create an environment where women staff feel safe and supported to raise concerns without fear of reprisal. This entails fostering a culture where harassment and discrimination are not tolerated and where individuals are empowered to speak up.
- Promoting Gender Equality:The ICC aims to promote gender equality by addressing systemic issues that disproportionately affect women in academia. This includes tackling gender bias, ensuring equitable access to opportunities, and supporting the advancement of women in their careers.
- Facilitating Fair and Transparent Processes:The ICC strives to uphold fairness and transparency in its processes for investigating complaints. This involves providing clear guidelines, conducting impartial investigations, and ensuring that all parties involved are treated with respect and dignity.
