The digital report button is the shortest route to advice, help or request for intervention. It is there for all those who want to report situations of transgressive behaviour:

• victims, witnesses of transgressive behaviour,
• third parties who are aware of situations involving cross-border behaviour,
• but also as a person contributing to the unwanted cross-border behaviour.

The report button takes you to the student confidants. 
Anyone using the report button can count on maximum discretion and a personal, confidential approach.

Every report made via the digital report button is taken seriously.  Therefore, only use this button if you want to make a 'real' report. 

What happens after a report via the digital report button?

Contact
Your report is received by the confidential counsellors; they will contact the person who made contact via the report button as soon as possible and at the latest within 3 working days. Only during official holidays will exceptions be made.

If someone prefers the help of a confidant who is further away from his/her own training, the confidant of the other region will be called in. If necessary, an external service or person is called in.

First interview
This conversation will take place at a time and location that help ensure discretion. During the first conversation, the confidential counsellor offers a listening ear, she/he helps clarify the question or report and considers what is desirable and possible.  All possible assistance scenarios are considered and discussed with the reporter. This allows the person concerned to then make an informed choice on how to proceed. Each follow-up step is done in consultation with the person making the report.

These are some of the options::

• As a victim or witness, you just want to get your story straight and would rather not have follow-up steps.

• You know about a problem situation and want to bring it to attention without being in the picture yourself. You are counting on the college to take follow-up steps.

• You witness a problem situation and wonder what you yourself can do.

• As a victim or bystander, you wish to have a confrontational conversation by the confidential counsellor with the person who directed unwanted cross-border behaviour towards you.

• As a victim, you are in favour of a recovery-oriented mediation process between you, the victim, and the perpetrator.

• You prefer not to be helped by UCLL staff and would like appropriate external help.

• You choose to lodge a formal complaint with UCLL.  

• You wish to lodge a complaint with the police and wonder what is required to do so and how to go about it.

• …

The contact form is intended for anyone wishing to report a situation involving (potentially) unwelcome cross-border behaviour. It must be a situation involving a UCLL student.
