'Schools rarely disclose sexual assaults'

Only a small percentage of sexual assault cases that occurred on Chinese campuses from January 2013 to May 2014 have been reported by public security or education authorities, an NGO's survey said this week.

The NGO - A Group on Women's Rights - is an online public-interest group comprising more than a dozen women, including mothers, lawyers, NGO workers and college students from regions and provinces that include Beijing, Guangzhou, Zhejiang and Henan.

They work together to collect information and conduct research about on-campus sexual assaults of girls and women, hoping that such cases can be reduced through intense information disclosure and public supervision.
