#MeToo Poli Sci: Leveraging APSA to Address Sexual Harassment

Session Submission Type: Roundtable

Session Description

This roundtable brings together PIs who are working with APSA to create interventions to address harassment in the discipline. Their objective is to create a “Climate Toolkit” that will incentivize and empower political science departments to improve awareness and practices, achieve significant measurable improvements in the overall climate, and increase department-level attention to broader inclusion issues. They will discuss how this work is going, and have the opportunity to brainstorm with one of their main constituencies, the APSA Women's Caucus.
