The It Stops Now campaign has launched in Scotland, with the University of Glasgow leading a week of activity to raise awareness of and combat sexual violence and harassment.

Students installed the campaign mural in the college library, with the college also releasing the campaign video to encourage students to believe and support survivors, speak up against toxic behaviours, and always check consent.

Sexual violence and harassment has no place on our campus.@GUSRC and UofG are one of the first in Scotland to launch the EU-wide #ItStopsNow campaign, demanding a zero-tolerance approach to sexual violence and harassment on university campuses.#UofGEndGBV pic.twitter.com/YJSB2TESNM

Other events taking place during the week include a "Let's Talk about Sexual Violence" workshop on 23 January, the release of a training video on gender-based violence, and the release of a statement against gender-based violence by the college.

The campaign is being run in conjunction with the university, Ending Sexual Violence and Harassment in Third-Level Education (ESHTE) project partner Rape Crisis Scotland, and Glasgow University Student Representative's Council.

Sexual violence and harassment is a reality too many #students across #Europe are facing, but, together, we can say #ItStopsNow. Take a look at how our partners in #Scotland are moving towards a culture of zero tolerance ⬇️ #EndVAWG #SpeakUp #UofGEndGBV https://t.co/ST7yTQm4y3
