WHAT IS HARASSMENT?

Harassment is defined as any unwanted or offensive behaviour, whether spoken, written, or physical, that produces an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment. Harassment can occur via digital platforms such as social media, as well as in person. Offensive jokes, insults, mockery, displays of offensive objects or imagery, stereotyping, intimidating acts, veiled threats of violence, racial or other slurs, derogatory remarks about a person's accent, or displays of racially offensive symbols are all examples of harassment.
