By the perspective of the dissemination of research in several countries that indicates the existence and the persistence of multiple violences against women, including in Brazil, a study was considered necessary about how this phenomenon is reproduced in educational environments such as the universities. Thus, the objective of this research was to investigate and map the places chosen by women as the most insecures at State University of Londrina. For this, as methodological procedures, a bibliographic survey and a questionnaire answered remotely by 173 women attending the UEL Campus were firstly performed. With these data, six graphs and a map were prepared. At the end of the survey, it was possible not only to identify the places listed by women as the most dangerous (arranged in the map), but also to propose some protective and socio-educational ways for the problem of insecurity in the mentioned institution.
