Your voice matters.

The 2026 National Student Safety Survey begins rolling out across Australian universities from 31 August.

The survey gives eligible students an opportunity to share their experiences and perspectives on sexual violence and harm. What students share will help inform positive change and contribute to safer university communities for current and future students.

You do not need to have experienced sexual violence or harm to take part. The survey is for all eligible students, and every student’s perspective matters.

Participation is voluntary and confidential. Support is available before, during and after participation.
