- Any form of physical violence
- Any form of threats of violence, whether written, verbal, by telephone or electronic
- Stalking
- Bringing or displaying weapons
- Expressing violent fantasies

All university members can contact the Threat Management Team at any time.
All reports will be handled quickly and confidentially.
You can reach the Threat Management Team by email: bedrohungsmanagement(at)univie.ac.at.
The Threat Management Team offers support to those affected by stressful threatening situations. Incoming reports are reviewed objectively and in a standardised manner to determine their relevance, the risk is assessed and a decision is made on how to proceed. The focus is on preventing violence.
Threat management always means creating a trusting relationship. Discretion, fairness, no premature judgements and the protection of the privacy of all those involved are our top priorities. At the same time, threat management means resolutely standing up for the safety of everyone at the university.
