The University of Nevada Las Vegas will lead a collaborative ADVANCE Partnership project with colleagues at the University of Maryland College Park, University of Massachusetts Amherst, Purdue University, Georgia State University and the American Political Science Association (APSA) to implement a project to address sexual harassment in Political Science. The project will support the wider adaptation of empirically-tested interventions such as department climate studies, upstanding bystander training, department-level facilitated dialogues, and policy changes that support an improved climate. The project capitalizes on the power that professional associations have to model, facilitate, and incentivize change in the climate and culture of the disciplines they serve through a substantial partnership with the APSA. The project has the potential to reach across the entire discipline into the 125 PhD-granting departments and approximately 1,125 BA and MA departments of political science. This discipline-wide approach is truly national in scope, and this program will be shared with other disciplines as a model for other professional organizations. The main output of this project will be the Climate Toolkit to incentivize and empower political science departments to: improve awareness and practices; achieve significant, measurable improvements in the overall climate in academic departments; and increase department-level attention to broader inclusion issues. The project will result in new understanding of 1) interinstitutional incentivization of organizational change, 2) the prevalence of sexual harassment across academic department cultures, 3) the efficacy of bystander training for effecting changes in institutional cultures 4) diological approaches to improving workplace climate, and 5) the relationship between improved workplace relationships and the ability to adopt equity-focused policy through shared governance structures. The NSF ADVANCE program is designed to foster gender equity through a focus on the identification and elimination of organizational barriers that impede the full participation and advancement of diverse faculty in academic institutions. Organizational barriers that inhibit equity may exist in policies, processes, practices, and the organizational culture and climate. ADVANCE "Partnership" awards provide support to collaborations among STEM professional societies and academic and non-academic non-profit organizations designed to broaden the implementation of evidence-based equity strategies and have a national or regional reach.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

内华达大学拉斯维加斯大学将在马里兰州大学公园，马萨诸塞大学阿默斯特大学，普渡大学，佐治亚州立大学和美国政治科学协会（APSA）的同事领导合作提前合作伙伴关系项目，以实施一个针对政治科学性骚扰的项目。该项目将支持对经验测试的干预措施的更广泛适应，例如部门气候研究，正式的旁观者培训，部门级别的促进对话以及支持改善气候的政策变更。该项目利用专业协会必须通过与APSA建立实质性合作伙伴关系来建模，促进和激励变化的权力。 该项目有可能进入整个学科，进入125个博士学位的部门，以及大约1,125 BA和MA政治学部门。这种整个学科的方法在范围上确实是全国性的，该计划将与其他学科共享，作为其他专业组织的典范。 该项目的主要成果将是激励和授权政治科学部门的气候工具包：提高意识和实践；在学术部门的整体气候中实现可观的，可衡量的改善；并增加部门级别对更广泛的包容问题的关注。该项目将导致对组织变革的机构间激励的新理解，2）跨学术部门文化的性骚扰的普遍性，3）旁观者培训在影响制度文化变化的效力4）二元理学方法在改善工作场所的关系之间的关系方面的关系，以及5）通过公平统一的政策之间的关系之间的关系。 NSF Advance计划旨在通过关注和消除阻碍各种教师在学术机构中的全面参与和进步的组织障碍来促进性别平等。 抑制公平的组织障碍可能存在于政策，过程，实践以及组织文化和气候中。 提前的“合作伙伴”奖项为STEM专业社会和学术和非学术非营利组织之间的合作提供了支持，旨在扩大实施基于证据的公平策略的实施，并具有国家或区域范围。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用该基金会的知识优点和广泛影响来评估NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得的支持。
