10 am - 5 pm EST on Tuesday, October 17 and Wednesday, October 18, 2023
The Public Summit of the National Academies’ Action Collaborative on Preventing Sexual Harassment in Higher Education is an open forum for those in the higher education ecosystem to collaboratively identify, discuss, and elevate innovative and promising approaches for addressing and preventing sexual harassment. This two-day event builds on the research findings and recommendations in the 2018 National Academies Report on Sexual Harassment of Women and on discussions at past annual Summits. It brings together a diverse group, including members and partner network organizations of the Action Collaborative, the broader higher education community, sexual violence and harassment researchers, sexual harassment response practitioners, grassroots and nonprofit organizations, public and private foundations, and federal and state policymakers.
This annual event will feature a combination of panel discussions, expert presentations, and a poster session through which attendees can share research and novel ideas and practices currently being explored or implemented. Additional information about the Summit, including the agenda, will be added to the Summit Event Site in the weeks leading up to the event.
