#MeToo – No justice without sex? (Agenda 2018)

Change the Course paints a damning picture of the university sector, finding that one in 10 female university students had been sexually assaulted in the previous two years and less than one in 20 believed their university was doing enough to support victims. #MeToo has, in some ways, kept the issues of Change the Course alive in universities, because for all that it is, #MeToo is, above all, a campaign of complaint and outrage about the violence and harms inflicted by and in workplaces.

In higher education, it’s not ‘simply’ a matter of running an equal pay case based on work value. In our sector, the pay gap is more likely caused by differences in bonuses and loadings paid to men and women in the same roles, by the prevalence of insecure employment and by career breaks which stall women’s earnings and superannuation contributions.
