Combating VPSSH

Combating violence and psychological, sexual and sexist harassment

The Festival d’Avignon is committed to protecting everyone working or taking part in the Festival, as well as members of the public, from all forms of discrimination, moral or sexual harassment, and sexist or sexual violence.

Are you a victim or a witness?

In an emergency, call 112, the European emergency number (or 17 if you are in France). If you are unable to speak, you can also contact 114 by text message.
