Join Science & Policy Exchange - Dialogue sciences et politiques for a policy discussion on Sexual Harassment in Academia - an open roundtable discussion on the current policies in academia, and the reach of these policies at the institutional, provincial, and federal level. The premise of #SPECafe is simple - We provide the coffee ☕ and some background info to the registered participants to start an open discussion where we can identify key issues, debate current policies, and come up with new ones that could be put in place. This event will be supplemented by a short presentation by Ms. Vigneau-Courchesne, a legal representative from Juripop who will provide a broad overview of policies and legal resources in place regarding sexual harassment in the workplace and survivors of sexual violence. All the the notes, ideas, comments, & solutions will be assembled into a short report by our team after the event to write a comprehensive report on the subject. You will be getting a copy and together we can reach out to stakeholders and decision-makers so your ideas can have an impact. Cost: Free entrance with registration
