Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls

Gender equality is necessary for a more fair and sustainable society. An important contribution to that goal is equal access to education and employment opportunities. Our policies on Admission, Equality and Diversity, Non-discrimination and Anti-harassment, ensure equal access and prevent discrimination based on gender or sexual orientation. To promote transparency and accountability, appeal processes are also in place.

In order to support families, USJ has a generous maternity and paternity paid leave policy for the staff, and has established a partnership with a nursery, that ensures childcare facilities at reduced rates for our staff, making it easier for parents to choose to actively participate in the job market.

In 2022-2023 academic year, 58% of our total student body was female; 50% of our total staff were female and 18% of our staff in senior positions were female.
