Representatives for equality

The Representatives for equality are the first point of contact for staff, students and doctoral students in situations requiring support/advice/clarification on anti-discrimination, mobbing, violence etc. They also disseminate information about equality measures carried out by the University.

The function of Representatives for equality in the Doctoral School of Exact and Natural Sciences is carried out by:

1. dr hab. Małgorzata Sandowicz, prof. ucz. (Faculty of Oriental Studies), email: msandowicz@uw.edu.pl;

2. dr. hab. Jan Romański, prof. ucz. (Faculty of Chemistry), e-mail: j.romanski@uw.edu.pl.

[For more information on equality measures at the UW, see HERE.]

The Representatives for equality provide assistance in cases of unequal treatment, discrimination, including harassment and sexual harassment, bullying and other unwanted behaviour.

If you are a witness or a victim of discrimination, bullying or harassment, or if you need advice or support, we also encourage you to contact the Director of the school prof. dr hab. Michał Cyrański
