At UPCité, concrete measures for the inclusion of LGBTI+ people

Enhanced support for LGBTI+ people

The Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Office is actively engaged in combating homophobia, biphobia, transphobia and intersexphobia. It works to ensure a respectful and inclusive environment for study and work. In this context, several measures have been introduced:

Support for students in the process of changing their preferred first name, in order to better reflect their gender identity. A reporting system enabling members of the community to report any situation involving harassment, violence or discrimination: signalement@u-paris.fr.

These measures are designed to ensure that reported situations are handled promptly and in a structured way, within a confidential and secure framework.

An ambitious training policy

Since 2021, Université Paris Cité has offered the open elective course “Equalities,” available to the entire student community. This course is a key tool for raising awareness and developing skills on equality-related issues.

The course addresses, through a cross-disciplinary approach, topics such as gender identity, sexual and romantic orientation, as well as LGBT+phobias. It helps strengthen understanding of the mechanisms of discrimination and promotes a shared culture of inclusion.

Through these combined actions involving support, reporting and training, Université Paris Cité is building a comprehensive equality policy aimed at safeguarding everyone’s rights and fostering an inclusive university environment.
