Ce document accompagnera les personnels des établissements d'enseignement supérieur dans la compréhension des épreuves que traversent certains étudiants victimes de discriminations liées à leur orientation sexuelle réelle ou présumée, ou à leur identité de genre. Un concours va également être lancé auprès des étudiants pour créer une nouvelle campagne de sensibilisation dans les universités. Un jury composé par des associations de lutte contre les L.G.B.T.phobies sélectionnera les visuels de la campagne, qui sera lancée à la rentrée étudiante de 2013. Le ministère de l'Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche est pleinement mobilisé pour mettre en place le plan gouvernemental de lutte contre l'homophobie. Geneviève Fioraso, ministre de l'Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche était présente hier au ministère des Droits des Femmes, à l'invitation de Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, pour la présentation du point d'étape de l'application de ce plan. <div class="texte_contenu_max"> </div> <div> <a href="http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?client=tmpg&depth=1&hl=en&langpair=fr%7Cen&rurl=translate.google.com&u=http://www.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/cid71885/le-m.e.s.r.-pleinement-mobilise-dans-la-lutte-contre-l-homophobie-a-l-universite.html&usg=ALkJrhiwNCfAMGT6bRPpjZ10FdUoMgIyoQ" target="_blank"><img src="http://cache.media.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/image/Outils/58/4/Affiche-campagne-homophobie-3_178584.139.jpg" width="98" height="65" align="left" /></a> The Ministry of Higher Education and Research publishes today on the occasion of the World Day against Homophobia, a brochure for university staff. </div> <div> This document will accompany the staff of higher education institutions in the understanding of the hardships experienced by some students who are victims of discrimination because of their real or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity. <a href="http://translate.google.com/translate?client=tmpg&hl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.univ-provence.fr%2Fblog%2Fcoordination-rgionale-paca%2Fdiscriminations%2F2013%2F05%2F17%2Fle-mesr-pleinement-mobilis-dans-la-lutte-contre-l-homophobie-l-universit&langpair=fr|en" target="_blank">More</a>... </div> Discriminations 2013-05-17T18:06:16Z pcassuto Recrutement et discrimination: le rôle de la formation http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/discriminations/2013/05/14/recrutement-et-discrimination-le-r-le-de-la-formation <div> <a href="http://www.focusrh.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.amge-jobs.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/logoFocusRH.jpg" alt="http://www.amge-jobs.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/logoFocusRH.jpg" width="97" height="42" align="left" /></a>Par Romain Giry.

The theme for Forum 2013 is: Bargaining – What do we want? Indigenous Forum 2013 will have a focus on the current Bargaining Round, in particular, the National Indigenous Claim incorporating numeric targets for maintaining and increasing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employment in the Australian higher education sector. A number of institutions have already finalised their negotiations for Round 6, while in the main, other institutions have either served their log of claims or are in the throes of negotiations. While negotiations take place, the looming Federal Election in September presents the possibility for political change; we need to consider what this political change will bring and how it may influence bargaining outcomes? This year’s Forum will also discuss the 2012 Review of Higher Education Access and Outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People (Behrendt review), in particular how the new membership of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Higher Education Advisory Council (formerly IHEAC) will seek to implement the 35 Review recommendations. Indigenous Forum 2013 offers delegates the opportunity to provide input into the future development of NTEU Indigenous higher education policy and strategies, relating to Indigenous employment, student income support, research, teaching and social justice issues. Registration — All those attending Indigenous Forum 2013 must submit a <a href="http://www.nteu.org.au/indigenous/forum/2013/registration" target="_blank">Registration form</a> to the National Office by COB 1st May 2013.  Due to the need to coordinate bus travel to and from the airport it is important to get your registrations in by the due date.

Despite the establishment of a government Office for Fair Access nearly a decade ago, students from less privileged backgrounds continue to be substantially underrepresented in the United Kingdom’s more prestigious universities. More than 90% of school children are educated in state-maintained schools in the UK, and yet state school students make up less than 80% of all UK-domiciled undergraduates at Russell Group universities and just 60% of those at the universities of Oxford, Cambridge and Durham. And while students from black, Pakistani and Bangladeshi ethnic backgrounds make up 10% of university entrants nationally, they account for just 4% of those entering Russell Group universities and less than 2% of those entering Oxford, Cambridge and Durham. <a href="http://www.universityworldnews.com/article.php?story=20130418172412126" target="_blank">Read more...</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> Discriminations 2013-04-21T10:22:25Z pcassuto How Should Colleges Ask About Students’ Sexual Orientation? http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/discriminations/2013/04/20/how-should-colleges-ask-about-students-sexual-orientation <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <a href="http://chronicle.com/blogs/headcount/" target="_blank"><img class="decoded" src="http://chronicle.com/img/photos/biz/icons/headcount-newnameplate.gif" alt="http://chronicle.com/img/photos/biz/icons/headcount-newnameplate.gif" width="145" height="27" align="left" /></a>By <a class="url fn n" href="http://chronicle.com/blogs/headcount/author/tjohnson" target="_blank" title="View all posts by Tammy R.

Reliable statistics about LGBT populations on campuses across the country are all but non-existent, and many progressive institutions are aiming to remedy that problem. It is a growing concern: How can schools provide outreach and support (and increase retention rates) for LGBT students if this at-risk population continues to be invisible? Likewise, LGBT campus groups are almost uniformly in favor of collecting reliable data that will document the presence of LGBT students on campus, which would help these groups advocate more successfully for funding and support. In the research-based environments of most college campuses, there is little opposition to collecting data to identify LGBT students. Faculty and staff who are even remotely familiar with the unique struggles faced by many LGBT students understand the justifications for identification.  Disagreement usually arises, however, when campuses begin to wrestle with the question of how to collect the data. <a href="http://chronicle.com/blogs/headcount/how-should-colleges-ask-students-about-their-sexual-orientation/34363" target="_blank">Read more...</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> Discriminations 2013-04-20T21:34:25Z pcassuto An Institutional Responsibility: Tracking Retention & Academic Success of Out LGBT Students http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/discriminations/2013/04/20/an-institutional-responsibility-tracking-retention-academic-success-of-out-lgbt-students <a href="http://www2.myacpa.org/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www2.myacpa.org/images/logos/acpa_bw.jpg" alt="http://www2.myacpa.org/images/logos/acpa_bw.jpg" width="116" height="62" align="left" /></a>By Shane Windmeyer, Keith Humphrey and Danielle Barker. Calls for increased accountability, specifically around student graduation rates, are everywhere in higher education across the United States. Ensuring that students progress efficiently from orientation to commencement has become the focus, and rightfully the responsibility, of many campus administrators. Increasing student retention and graduation rates is challenging work, unless colleges and universities are willing to raise their admissions standards. Many institutions that are not able to adjust the academic profile of their entering class have smartly disaggregated their retention data to see where the roadblocks exist that stop students from succeeding. In that process, it has become clear that aspects of student’s identity contribute to their success just as much as their academic preparation or study skills. But, in the process of designing complex retention interventions, institutions determined to achieve success for their students are missing key aspects of student’s identity, particularly identity based on sexual orientation. This oversight potentially makes some of the retention efforts futile. There is no panacea that all campuses can adopt to resolve this issue. Woodard et al. correctly stated that like politics, all retention issues are local (Woodard et al., 2001). What works on one campus, is not likely to be exactly replicated on another campus. The logic is simple. As much as our campuses are the same, they are really very different from each other. Each campus has its own student body, admission requirements, academic policies, tuition and fee structures, and student services that support the graduation goal. Even institutions located across the street from each other compare like the proverbial apples and oranges. <a href="http://www2.myacpa.org/an-institutional-responsibility/" target="_blank">Read more...</a> Discriminations 2013-04-20T18:26:49Z pcassuto Poorest pupils ‘could be nudged to apply to university’ http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/discriminations/2013/04/20/poorest-pupils-could-be-nudged-to-apply-to-university <a href="http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/magazine/graphics/logo.png" alt="Times Higher Education" width="94" height="78" align="left" /></a>By <a href="http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/biography.asp?contact=73" target="_blank">Simon Baker</a>.School pupils from poorer backgrounds could be contacted by the government to nudge them towards applying to university if they get good GCSE grades, David Willetts has said.

Il existe 19 critères de discrimination à l’embauche, strictement définis par le code du travail (L.1132-1) et le code pénal (225.1). Si l’on évoque le plus souvent des <a href="http://la-page-de-l-emploi.pagepersonnel.fr/conseils-carriere/discrimination-en-entretien-5-situations-5-solutions-2/" target="_blank">discriminations relatives à l’âge, au sexe ou à l’origine des candidats</a>, d’autres critères moins galvaudés sont également inscrits dans la loi. C’est le cas de l’orientation et l’identité sexuelles. Le contexte social et politique n’a permis qu’une prise en compte tardive (voire récente) de ces questions en tant que discriminations: ce n’est par exemple qu’au début des années 1990 que l’OMS a déclassifié l’homosexualité des maladies mentales. Si l’orientation sexuelle (hétérosexuel, homosexuel, bisexuel) a été ajoutée dans la liste des critères discriminatoires en 2001, l’identité sexuelle n’y figure que depuis 2012. On pourra d’ailleurs noter que la formulation exacte aurait dû être « identité de genre ». Ce critère a été ajouté afin de pouvoir traiter comme des discriminations les difficultés rencontrées par les personnes transgenres qui n’étaient jusqu’alors pas couvertes par la seule notion d’orientation sexuelle. Pour information, le <a href="http://www.defenseurdesdroits.fr/" target="_blank">Défenseur Des Droits</a> et avant lui la Halde ont reçu chaque année entre 1,5 et 3% du total de leurs réclamations sur ce critère discriminatoire, soit plus de réclamations que sur les critères des convictions religieuses ou de l’apparence physique. <a href="http://la-page-de-l-emploi.pagepersonnel.fr/tendances-analyses/orientation-sexuelle-et-discrimination-dans-le-recrutement/" target="_blank">Suite de l'article...</a> <div> <a href="http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=en&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=fr&tl=ga&u=http://la-page-de-l-emploi.pagepersonnel.fr/&usg=ALkJrhhuudgPuWO8U2f5RqRmbMCex9kdPw" target="_blank"><img src="http://la-page-de-l-emploi.pagepersonnel.fr/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/logo_blog_pp_header.png" alt="Fostaíocht Page Pearsanra Leathanach" width="139" height="24" align="left" /></a> De réir <a href="http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=en&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=fr&tl=ga&u=http://la-page-de-l-emploi.pagepersonnel.fr/author/vincent-poirel/&usg=ALkJrhjyvrLi7oKMD3bhpM0yoL8Zs6wLqg" target="_blank" title="Airteagail ag Poirel Vincent">Vincent Poirel</a>.

This included verbal harassment and “catcalling”, while groping in nightclubs was viewed by some as part of a “normal” night out. <a href="http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/news/sexism-rife-in-universities-warns-nus-report/2002416.article" target="_blank">Read more...</a> </div> </div> Discriminations 2013-03-09T21:24:51Z pcassuto Oxford accused of 'bias' against ethnic minorities because of success of white candidates in getting places on competitive courses http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/discriminations/2013/03/03/oxford-accused-of-bias-against-ethnic-minorities-because-of-success-of-white-candidates-in-getting-places-on-competitive-courses <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2285080/Oxford-University-Accused-bias-ethnic-minorities-success-white-candidates-getting-places-competitive-courses.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i.mol.im/i/sitelogos/logo_mol.gif" alt="MailOnline - news, sport, celebrity, science and health stories" width="144" height="27" align="left" /></a>By <a class="author" href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/search.html?s=&authornamef=Sarah+Harris" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Sarah Harris</a>. White applicants to some of the most competitive courses are twice as likely to get places. Of British students applying, 25.7% received an offer compared to 17.2% of students from ethnic minorities. MP David Lammy said the figures suggested an 'institutional bias'. Oxford University was yesterday accused of ‘institutional bias’ against ethnic minorities amid striking differences in different racial groups’ entry rates. White applicants to some of the most competitive courses are up to twice as likely to get places even with the same A-level grades, according to data released under the Freedom of Information Act. Overall, of the white, British students applying in 2010 and 2011, 25.7 per cent received an offer to attend the university, compared to 17.2 per cent of students from ethnic minorities. The gaps were most marked in medicine and economics and management but there was statistically no difference in success rates between white and non-white students applying for law. <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2285080/Oxford-University-Accused-bias-ethnic-minorities-success-white-candidates-getting-places-competitive-courses.html" target="_blank">Read more...</a> Discriminations 2013-03-03T09:02:08Z pcassuto Construire sa politique diversité et lutter contre les discriminations http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/diversit/2013/02/19/construire-sa-politique-diversit-et-lutter-contre-les-discriminations <a href="http://www.pays-de-la-loire.direccte.gouv.fr/construire-sa-politique-diversite-et-lutter-contre-les.html" target="_blank"><img class="spip_logos" src="http://www.pays-de-la-loire.direccte.gouv.fr/local/cache-vignettes/L115xH170/arton9669-651fe.jpg" width="70" height="104" align="left" /></a>Diversité: un nouveau guide réalisé par la COPEC Loire-Atlantique Recueil d’informations essentielles à connaître sur la politique diversité et la lutte contre les discriminations, ce guide s’adresse aux dirigeants et managers d’entreprises, professionnels des ressources humaines et de l’emploi.

Il s’adresse aux dirigeants et managers d’entreprise, professionnels des Ressources Humaines et de l’emploi. Il a pour objectif de vous éclairer en vous donnant un aperçu synthétique des principes, dispositifs et acteurs. Ce document en version numérique vous apporte en complément, des liens hypertextes qui vous permettent d’aller plus loin dans vos recherches au gré de vos besoins. Ce guide se présente selon 4 thèmes, présentés sous forme d’onglets. Les trois premiers thèmes "Je m’informe sur…", "J’agis…", "Je valorise..." vous proposent des: - Contacts, sites et actions de référence - Informations essentielles - Outils à disposition* - Illustrations ou témoignages d’entreprises - Zooms sur un sujet ou une action Le quatrième thème "Acteurs et actions en Loire-Atlantique..." présente une sélection d’acteurs sous forme de fiche où sont indiqués leurs missions, actions et/ou outils à disposition en matière de lutte contre les discriminations, égalité de traitement et promotion de la diversité. La liste de ces acteurs n’est pas exhaustive. Notre sélection s’est plus particulièrement portée sur les acteurs institutionnels qui subventionnent ou soutiennent largement ce type d’actions et les acteurs dont les actions "Diversité" sont accessibles aux entreprises. * Comme vous le constaterez, les outils répertoriés dans ce guide sont parfois un peu anciens, la période 2007-2009 a par exemple été particulièrement prolifique sur ce thème. Néanmoins, les principes et démarches qu’ils décrivent sont toujours d’actualité et c’est pourquoi nous les citons. Néanmoins, nous vous invitons à toujours rester vigilant en ce qui concerne les informations législatives et juridiques ainsi que les contacts et coordonnées fournis, ceux-ci peuvent vite devenir caducs. Les institutions, quant à elles, sont en général relativement pérennes mais certains grands remaniements peuvent parfois être opérés.

An online article in Women's Agenda by Conrad Liveris asks why there aren't more women in leadership roles in our universities, when there are more women graduating? Liveris notes that tertiary education is a haven of activity for women, as both staff and students, but it obvious that equity issues still remain: Of the nearly 1.1 million students at university <a href="http://www.equity.qut.edu.au/staff/reports/2008_Selected_inter_institutional_gender_equity_stats_AUSwide.pdf" target="_blank">57% are women, making up 53% of all tertiary students in Australia</a>. Women have already made the government's target for 40% of people holding a bachelor's degree, with men still in the mid-30% range.While the above stats reference a 2008 study on such gender breakdowns, there's been little evidence to indicate how wide the gap currently is. The tertiary education sector has a distinct focus on the gender balance with students, but more research needs to be done to give female academics a practical pathway to leadership.

It seems that the new economic changes are associated by less rigid employment policies that include a mixed labor environment. For example, the government's decision forcing business owners to employ women in traditionally male dominated sales jobs in shops and malls across the country is going full steam ahead and is no longer taboo. However, as far back as the 1990's, studies by international organizations such as The International Labor Organization and the World Bank have indicated that the Saudi education system in general was deteriorating, and failing to properly prepare young Saudi men and women for the local job market. Now a new shortcoming could be added to the decaying education system: Failing to meet the new labor structure by systematically preparing them for mixed gender surroundings. It is no secret that gender segregation in education has been the status quo in Saudi Arabia since public education for females was officially introduced in the early 1960's. Interestingly, the Kingdom is the only Muslim country in the world that still does not have coed schooling in all education levels, from primary school to university. <a href="http://www.menafn.com/menafn/1093605564/Gender-segregation-higher-education" target="_blank">Read more...</a> Discriminations 2013-02-04T22:16:28Z pcassuto Emploi: le diktat de l'apparence http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/discriminations/2013/01/23/emploi-le-diktat-de-l-apparence <img class="_s0 _rw img" src="http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/hprofile-ak-prn1/174658_355647040440_480655935_q.jpg" align="left" />Toute décision de l'employeur (embauche, promotion, licenciement, etc.) doit être prise en fonction de critères professionnels et non sur des considérations d'ordre personnel, fondées sur des éléments extérieurs au travail (sexe, religion, apparence physique, nationalité, vie privée...)".

Massive fall in admissions demands drastic action, Universities minister says. Universities will be told they should recruit more white, working-class boys in the wake of figures showing a massive slump in applications from men for courses. The Universities minister David Willetts wants white, working-class teenage boys put in the same category as students from other disadvantaged communities and ethnic minorities – as groups that should be targeted for recruitment. The move has the potential to create conflict with Britain's independent schools if universities – as a result – use it to discriminate against middle-class applicants in order to curry favour with the university access watchdog, the Office for Fair Access. <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/education/education-news/exclusive-treat-white-workingclass-boys-like-ethnic-minority-willetts-tells-universities-8436087.html" target="_blank">Read more...</a> Discriminations 2013-01-06T10:36:18Z pcassuto Forderung von britischem Uni-Minister - Her mit der Quote für weiße Jungs! http://blog.univ-provence.fr/blog/coordination-rgionale-paca/discriminations/2013/01/04/forderung-von-britischem-uni-minister-her-mit-der-quote-f-r-wei-e-jungs <a href="http://www.spiegel.de/unispiegel/" target="_blank"><img class="spIEsixPng" src="http://www.spiegel.de/static/sys/v9/spiegelonline_logo.png" alt="SPIEGEL ONLINE" title="SPIEGEL ONLINE" width="181" height="25" align="left" /></a>Sie besuchen selten eine Uni und interessieren sich vor allem für "kämpfen, kicken, Koitus": Männliche, weiße Arbeiterkinder fallen im britischen Bildungssystem zurück.

London/Hamburg - Deutschland und andere europäische Länder ringen noch um eine Frauenquote für Spitzenpositionen in der Wirtschaft, Großbritannien sorgt sich bereits um die Zukunft der jungen Männer. Wie auch anderswo sind dort junge Frauen auf dem Vormarsch: Sie haben bessere Schulnoten und besuchen häufiger eine Universität - 984.000 weiblichen Studentinnen standen im vergangenen Jahr nur 713.000 männliche Kommilitonen gegenüber, berichtet der "Telegraph". Und die Bewerbungen junger Männer gehen weiter deutlich zurück, besonders betroffen sind demnach weiße Söhne aus Arbeiterfamilien.

White working class boys are so under-represented at universities that they may need to be treated like ethnic minorities when it comes to recruiting students, a government minister has suggested. The number of boys applying to university courses has fallen dramatically and more must be done to ensure they sign up, David Willetts argued. The universities minister said there was no reason why white working class boys should not be targeted in the same way as other disadvantaged groups by the Office for Fair Access (Offa). The university access watchdog "can look at a range of disadvantaged groups – social class and ethnicity, for instance – when it comes to access agreements, so I don't see why they couldn't look at white, working-class boys," he said. The minister plans to discuss the issue of making white working class boys a target group for recruitment in university access agreements with Professor Les Ebdon, the director of Offa. Universities have to sign the agreements to receive permission to charge higher fees. <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/universityeducation/universities-and-colleges/9777067/White-working-class-boys-could-be-treated-like-ethnic-minorities-by-universities-says-minister.html" target="_blank">Read more...</a> Discriminations 2013-01-04T10:39:00Z pcassuto
