ABOUT THE SEXUAL MISCONDUCT AND VIOLENCE TAXONOMY

In November 2018, RALIANCE, developed the Sexual Misconduct and Violence Taxonomy, a new form of categorization that was informed by the experiences and needs of survivors and created a uniform standard for reporting and classifying reported safety incidents. As the first-of-its-kind evidence-based data classification system, the taxonomy serves as a guide for employee support departments that classify reports of sexual misconduct and violence. The taxonomy is a tool that any organization can use with RALIANCE's guidance to help measure sexual violence incidents, use that data to better understand the scope of the problem, and identify specific goals to promote safety and prevent future harm.
