Harassment

Wellbeing and a safe environment are compromised if inappropriate treatment such as harassment, bullying or other inappropriate behavior occurs at school. Each of us has the responsibility to promote a good atmosphere and responsible behavior through our own activities. Inappropriate treatment may be perpetrated and targeted at any member of the community.

Every human being is born equal and has the same basic rights. Higher education is equally available for everyone regardless of age, ethnic background and nationality, language, religion and beliefs, opinions, wealth, state of health, disabilities, sexual orientation or other personal matters.

Helga is against all discrimination and works actively to remove that from the student community.
