{"abstract":"The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) enforced and implemented the Safe Spaces Act (Republic Act 11313) for both public and private higher education institutions. It includes all forms of sexual harassment based on gender that occur in public, at work, in schools, and online. This study addresses the limited understanding of student awareness and adherence to the Safe Spaces Act (Republic Act 11313) at Saint Francis of Assisi College – Las Piñas Campus. 228 respondents, utilized a descriptive-correlational design, the study aimed to examine the correlation between the awareness and adherence with the Republic Act 11313. Results revealed a significant and moderately strong positive correlation in the area of physical spaces (R = 0.5737) followed by social spaces and institutional policies. Quantitative data indicated that respondents agreed that the institution promotes a safe environment within its facilities, although there were gaps in the visibility of some services designed to assist students. For this purpose, the methodological triangulation result revealed the three key themes: inclusive environment, awareness and support system. These emphasized the need for students and institutional aid within defined frameworks. It was concluded that increased awareness explains to a better adherence to policy suggesting a need for adequate orientation programs, clear reporting pathways or mechanisms, and a clear designated Gender and Development office. Findings support efforts to strengthen a culture of respect, equality, and accountability in higher education settings. The results will help in making the suggestions for the improvement of safety, inclusivity, and student wellbeing in higher education settings.","abstract_source":"original","authors":["Ralph Arjay DelaCruz","Jhoniel Samoling","Danilo Tubeo"],"date":"2025-07-05","doi":"10.70838/pemj.410903","id":5743,"issue":9,"journal":{"issn":"2822-4353","name":"Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal"},"pdf_sha256":"423c09fa756855b07a1c1286c74ee90b3b5c30945cd9ebe80a15902cccd97a54","schema":"scimatic-article/1","title":"The Safe Spaces Act (R.A. 11313): Student Awareness and Adherence in a Private Higher Education Institution","volume":41}
