Boomi’s harassment contact persons

Harassment contact persons aim to provide low-threshold support for other students. If you are experiencing bullying, discrimination, racism or harassment at student events, in organisations or during your studies, you can contact a harassment contact person. You can also get in touch if you are experiencing stress, anxiety or worry about your studies or student life. You can also contact a harassment contact person about inappropriate behaviour towards other people. It does not matter if you feel unsure about whether anything wrong or unacceptable has happened. Your own feelings are enough: if you feel uncomfortable about something that has happened, it is always a good idea to talk to someone you trust, for example a harassment contact person.

All conversations with harassment contact persons are confidential and all activities are under professional secrecy. We operate in accordance with Boomi’s safer spaces policy and will not do anything without your consent. Our harassment contact persons will support you for as long as you need it. Together we can discuss what has happened and consider what to do next. If you wish, no further action will be taken as a result of reporting the incident. You can come to us with your case in full independence, without fear of being stigmatised. Our harassment contact persons are impartial and situations involving more than one person will be handled in a way that listens to all parties involved.

You can contact the harassment contact persons by email, the notification form, Facebook, Instagram, phone or directly face-to-face at the university. The harassment contact persons are involved in many events at Boomi and there is a low threshold for people to come and chat. Harassment contact persons may also be assisted at events by designated support staff, who are subject to the same obligations regarding confidentiality of reporting. It is also possible to report anonymously via the reporting form. If you wish to address your message only to one of the harassment contact person, please make this clear in the subject field.

In 2023, the harassment contact persons are Emma Aro and Matias Välitalo, who you can contact by various social media, email, face-to-face or anonymously via the harassment reporting form hairinta@boomi.fi

Emma

Hey there! I’m Emma, a second-year management student. In addition to all things Boomi-related, I love anything to do with music, staying active, and hanging out with friends. I also spend my time at student events, working, and binge-watching series. As a harassment contact person, I want to help make Boomi an even safer and more inclusive space for everyone—somewhere everyone feels truly welcome. You can always come talk to me, no matter how small the reason. So don’t hesitate to send me a message or just tap me on the shoulder!

Matias


Hello! I am Matias, first year student. In addition to my Boomi-duties I like to binge-watch movies and TV series. My favourite thing is going to my cottage in Lapland where I read books in candlelight. As a harrasment contact person, I want to be a part of making Boomi even safer community, where everyone feels accepted just as they are. Feel free to contact me in all kinds of matters, either in person orr via message.
