Project Description

The Committee on Women in Science, Engineering, and Medicine (CWSEM) of the National Academies is studying the influence of sexual harassment on the career advancement of women in science, engineering, and medicine, particularly in the higher education and medical settings. They reached out to RTI to conduct focus groups with various academic stakeholders, with a goal of learning about potential strategies and policies that might enable a broad range of institutions to identify what works and what does not in terms of reducing sexual harassment. We are working with sexual harassment experts on their Committee to develop a protocol and conduct the focus groups.
