In order to achieve this obligation, it is incumbent upon the University to design a well-defined, structured and coordinated policy to engage with the community development interests. Therefore, GU has developed a University Community engagement policy document to guide its stakeholders by articulating desired standards and principles of engagement that facilitate meaningful and mutual partnerships in the quest for community transformation. This document comprises a deliberate institutional policy guide, inform and standardize, as far as possible, how GU would wish to engage with communities with reasonable degree of uniformity and consistency.Item The Gulu University Anti-Sexual Harassment Policy(Gulu University, 2021-08-31) Gulu Universityvery dynamic and sometimes unpredictable. The dynamism and evolvement of culture may result in emerging social vices, including various forms of sexual harassment. At Gulu University, sexual harassment is believed to exist, but because victims may fear to report it has only been talked about parenthetically. Cognizant of its vision to be the leading academic institution for pro motion of community transformation and industrialisation for sustainable development, the University is committed to create a safe working and learning environment, free from depravities including sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is seen as an infringement on fundamental human rights. In the context of higher institutions of learning it negates the tenets of a safe learning and working conditions, thus undermining a conducive environment for advancement of learning, generation of new knowledge as well as productive work.The University has therefore taken a deliberate effort to develop the Anti-Sexual Harassment Policy to provide a framework to detect, prevent and/or to address cases of sexual harassment as well as protect victims. With certainty, the university hopes this Policy and its guidelines will help improve work and learning conditions, workforce productivity, retention and morale of staff and students. As Gulu University, we are indebted to the UN Women and all the partners who financially contributed towards the production of this policy. In addition, to Makerere University Gender Mainstreaming Department, who worked together with Gulu University on this path, we owe you great appreciation and best wishesItem GULU UNIVERSITY UNDERGRADUATE ADMISSION POLICY(Gulu University, 2017-07-21) Gulu University, Academic RegistrarThe Gulu University Undergraduate Admissions Policy provides information on Admission requirement, selection procedures and registration processes for undergraduate Programmes at Gulu University.Item GULU UNIVERSITY POLICY ON PLAGIARISM(Gulu University, 2023-04-23) Gulu University, Library and Information ServicesGulu University is one of the leading public universities in Uganda that was founded in 2002 by a statutory instrument 31 of 2003.
