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) has conferred an honorary doctorate degree to esteemed Sesotho author, Khotso Pieter David Maphalla, for his contribution to the development of the Sesotho language and culture through his novels. Dr Maphalla is a prolific writer and most of his books have been prescribed for secondary schools throughout the country. The honorary doctorate was awarded to him during the recent graduation ceremony of the UFS Qwaqwa Campus. Here are Dr Maphalla (left) and Dr Franklin Sonn, Chancellor of the UFS, during the graduation ceremony.
