Abstract
El hostigamiento sexual sigue siendo una problemática poco visibilizada por muchas
instituciones peruanas, puesto que existe poco interés por el tema. A fines del 2019, la Unidad
Académica de Estudios Generales Letras (EEGGLL) de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del
Perú (PUCP) creó un equipo de trabajo llamado “Letras Sin Violencia” (LSV) con el fin de
promover estrategias de promoción, sensibilización y capacitación para prevenir situaciones de
hostigamiento sexual en la comunidad de Letras (LSV, 2023).
Por lo tanto, para complementar el trabajo de LSV, se ha diseñado el proyecto de comunicación
para el desarrollo titulado “Letras en Acción”, que busca prevenir el hostigamiento sexual
mediante el fortalecimiento de la convivencia entre pares. Mediante tres etapas: primero, que
los estudiantes identifiquen los conceptos y prácticas sobre hostigamiento sexual; segundo, que
los estudiantes cuenten con capacidades comunicativas para la toma de acción frente al
hostigamiento sexual, y, por último, que los estudiantes construyan confianza en los canales
institucionales para hacer frente a la denuncia. La metodología usada fue principalmente
etnográfica y participativa.
En conclusión, se pudo identificar que a los estudiantes no solo les interesa tener conocimiento
teórico sobre el tema de hostigamiento sexual, sino que necesitan que la universidad les brinde
espacios de diálogo para la identificación de prácticas sobre la problemática abordada, en donde
puedan desarrollar habilidades comunicativas que les permita tomar acción frente a una posible
situación de hostigamiento sexual
Sexual harassment continues to be a not very visible problem in many institutions in Peru because there is no much interest in the topic. At the end of 2019, the Unidad Académica de Estudios General Letras (EEGGLL) of the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP) created a team called "Letras Sin Violencia" (LSV) in order to promote advocacy strategies, awareness and training to prevent situations of sexual harassment in the EEGGLL community (LSV, 2023). Therefore, to complement the work of LSV, the Communication for Development project entitled “Letras en Acción” has been designed, which seeks to prevent sexual harassment by strengthening coexistence among peers. Through three stages: first, students identify the concepts and practices of sexual harassment; second, students have skills to take action against sexual harassment, and finally, students build trust in the institutional channels to file a complaint. The methodology used was mainly ethnographic and participative. In conclusion, it was possible to identify that students are not only interested in having theoretical knowledge on the subject of sexual harassment, but also the university needs to provide spaces for dialogue to identify practices on the problem addressed, where they can develop skills communication that allows them to take action in the face of a possible situation of sexual harassment
