2018 University of Bristol incident
Rosario Sanchez began a PhD course at the University of Bristol in January 2018. Her focus was online communities for men who pay for sex, part of her work ending violence against girls and women.
In November 2017 Woman’s Place UK asked her to chair its upcoming meeting in Bristol, scheduled for 8 February 2018. During protests, Rosario Sanchez claimed that the university had failed to protect her from a “hate campaign” over the event.
She unsuccessfully sued the school.
