Culture of Accountability, Respect, and Equity in science and medicine
We propose a multi-modal, novel, scalable intervention to reduce the incidence of sexual harassment in biomedical research and medicine and create safer, more equitable workplaces.
Over 50% of women faculty in medical schools (researchers and physicians) experience sexual harassment, which is associated with lower productivity, worse well-being, and a costly loss of talent[1]. Existing workplace modules on sexual harassment have not successfully decreased its incidence. Our novel, multi-modal educational program incorporating evidence-based practices and bespoke video games empowers people of all genders to decrease the incidence of sexual harassment and increase the retention of women and gender and sexual minorities.
