About ICC Committee at Shiv Nadar University

Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence Deemed to be University, Delhi-NCR is committed to providing a place of work and study free of gender and sexual harassment, intimidation, discrimination or exploitation. The emphasis of this committee is on gender sensitization, and equitable, accountable and representative process of resolution and redressal in case of sexual harassment complaints, and it strives to create a gender inclusive culture on campus. The University is committed to the principles of free inquiry and free expression. Sexual harassment, however, is never an exercise of academic freedom or freedom of expression. It compromises the integrity of the University and its traditions of intellectual freedom, and it also violates the principle of Equality and dignity of all its members. It is expected that all students, faculty and staff, as well as part-time and contractual workers will treat one another and visitors to the University with respect. All members of the University community, including those who are in temporary or short-term positions, as well as visitors on campus are subject to the ICC policy. Anyone violating this policy is subject to disciplinary action. The responsibility for promoting and implementing this policy has been vested with the University’s Internal Complaints Committee (i.e. ICC, also known as the Gender Committee and formally known as the Committee on Sensitization of Gender, Prevention and Redressal of Sexual Harassment i.e. CSG)
