Gender-based violence is generally a major concern in the country and the university in particular. Kovsies have a zero-tolerance towards any acts of violence.
We encourage the UFS community to break the silence so that perpetrators are brought to book. To abusers, we say: stop the violence! One of our students opens up about her experience in the video below.
We encourage others to Report gender-based violence, Sexual Harassment and any act of prejudice or discrimination to the Sexual Assault Response Team on
+27 51 401 7777 or
+27 0 80 020 4682 (24 hour toll free).

The University of the Free State (UFS) recently hosted a two-day Sasol Free State/Northern Cape Schools Festival presented on the Main Campus. The festival provided young South Africans with a unique opportunity to develop their entire person – mind, body and soul. It also offered them a chance to explore the diverse South African cultural heritage through encounters with their peers and new creative expressions. The guest speaker was actress and director, Nobulali Dangazele, who is also the founder and leader of ShakesExperiential. The festival is a project of the Grahamstown Foundation. .
