Report Gendered Violence
The Gendered Violence Portal allows anyone to report an incident of sexual assault or harassment – whether you have been directly affected, are a witness to an incident, or a support person.
Reports can be made anonymously and will remain confidential unless specifically stated by the person reporting.
Report a Crime
If you have been a victim of crime, don't be afraid to come forward to our Protective Services Officers, who are specially trained to help you.
For support outside of UNSW, you can anonymously report crimes to Crime Stoppers and access help from NSW Victims Services. You can also call the Police Assistance Line on 131 444.
First Aid and insurance for injuries
If you require non-urgent First Aid assistance and cannot make it to the University Health Service, contact Campus Security by calling 9385 6000. Each Patrol Officer carries a First Aid kit or pouch.
Students are covered by insurance for injuries or accidents incurred during UNSW activity and can make a report here.
