The Zero Tolerance for Violence @ Anti-Sexual Harassment Advocacy Program, organized by the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development (KPWKM), was held at universities nationwide to raise awareness due to the increasing cases of violence and sexual harassment. Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri stated that the program aims to ensure university students remain aware of issues related to sexual harassment and violence. She also highlighted the establishment of the Anti-Sexual Harassment Tribunal (TAGS) as a timely platform to represent victims.“As of December 2024, 25 cases have been reported under TAGS. Although the tribunal only began operating in March this year, it has already handled 25 cases. This shows growing awareness, and TAGS is becoming an important avenue to support victims,” she said.The program, held at Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS), encourages strategic collaboration among various stakeholders to enhance prevention and awareness of sexual harassment, particularly among university students, women, and men. Key highlights included introductions to TAGS, Anti-Sexual Harassment advocacy sessions, a talk on cyberbullying prevention, and a Townhall session with Nancy.Around 2,000 participants, including UNIMAS students and lecturers, nearby public universities, government agencies, and NGOs, took part in the event.

On 18 January 2024, the Ministry of Higher Education, together with UNESCO and MEIPTA, hosted the Inclusive Open Educational Resources (iOER) Showcase to highlight accessible and inclusive digital learning materials. Six universities, including UNIMAS, were shortlisted from 32 finalists based on strong accessibility and inclusivity features in their iOER products. Representing UNIMAS, Associate Professor Dr. Julia Lee from the Faculty of Cognitive Sciences and Human Development presented “Unpacking the iOER Black Box on Diversity in Higher Education,” adapted from the PgDip HETL programme. The showcased iOER products were developed through a structured multi-phase training programme conducted from March to June 2022, led by national and international experts in Universal Design for Learning and open education. This initiative reflects UNIMAS’ ongoing commitment to advancing inclusive digital learning in higher education.
