Workshop: An International Conference on Academic Sexual Misconduct to Identify Barriers, Develop Resources and Recommendations, and Build Community

为期三天的会议将包括研究人员和其他利益相关者，他们致力于解决学术性行为不端问题。这次会议是必要的，因为大多数与性行为不端有关的工作都集中在学生之间的性骚扰上，而在高等教育机构中，关于教职员工性行为不端的研究、知识共享和专业知识有限。这次会议将是第一个分享资源、讨论障碍和确定学术性行为不端的机构实践的国际论坛。本次会议的成果包括一个开放获取的在线资源库、会议记录，以及关于预防和解决高等教育机构教职员工性行为不端的最佳做法的建议。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The three-day conference will include researchers and other stakeholders working on issues around academic sexual misconduct. This conference is necessary since most work related to sexual misconduct has focused on student-student sexual harassment and there is limited research, knowledge-sharing, and expertise on faculty or staff sexual misconduct in institutions of higher education. This conference will be the first international forum to share resources, discuss barriers, and identify institutional practices on academic sexual misconduct. The outcomes of this conference include an open-access online repository of resources, conference proceedings, and recommendations for best practices for preventing and addressing faculty or staff sexual misconduct in institutions of higher education.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.
