Exhaustive list of locations for gender-neutral/accessible/unisex bathrooms across all VUW campuses
Brock Stobbs made this Official Information request to Victoria University of Wellington
The request was partially successful.
From: Brock Stobbs
Dear Victoria University of Wellington,
I am contacting you in my capacity as a member of the Executive Team for UniQ Victoria. To accommodate the students we represent, not limited to transgender, non-binary, gender non-confirming students, we typically provide information as to the location of gender-neutral bathrooms for their convenience, safety and security. We acquired this information through a previous OIA request made in 2015 by a member of a previous Executive Team.
I seek to receive an updated version of this list of the gender-neutral bathrooms, or bathrooms that could otherwise serve as gender-neutral (i.e. unisex or accessible bathrooms) located on all Victoria University of Wellington campuses. This list should reflect the developments to the university campuses that have occurred since 2015 and be an exhaustive or otherwise fully comprehensive list that includes enough information to make them easily located. This would include, but not be limited to, the campus, building, floor and room the bathrooms are located in.
I am also aware that you are able to, or direct to those who are able to, provide us with individual detailed floor plans showing the locations of these bathrooms. I would like for this information to be included in this request.
This information would be of great service to us and the students we represent as it would make navigating the campuses easier and improve the overall well-being of the students by eliminating a potential source of stress for students.
Yours faithfully,
Brock Stobbs
