Welcome to the Dignity, Respect & Consent (DR&C) Service

The University is committed to promoting a positive environment for Staff, Students, and Other community members, where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, where work and study is free from bullying, harassment, or sexual misconduct.

DR&C Service Review

To support the work of the DR&C Service, we are inviting students and staff to share their experiences, perspectives, and suggestions through independently facilitated focus groups, one-to-one interviews, and surveys.

Contributions will be treated confidentially, and no individuals will be identifiable in the final report. We also recognise that these topics may be challenging for many of us to discuss, if you wish to seek support, please visit the Support Services webpage for more information.

Your voice will play a vital role in strengthening the culture of dignity, respect, and consent at Trinity College Dublin.
