DAY 2 (APRIL 21)

11-11:30am Welcome and Recap of Day 1
Following a brief welcome, this session will set the stage for Day 2 by way of an expert synthesis of Day 1 conversations. This will involve a synthesis of the ideas shared by participants thus far, an exploration of emerging connections and themes across sessions, a summary of what is still unknown and/or undiscussed, and reflections on next steps.

11:30am-12:30pm Session 1A: Evaluation in Practice: Considerations and Limitations
This session is a candid conversation between key stakeholders (evaluation experts, sexual harassment experts, practitioners, and institutional leaders) around their experiences with carrying out evaluation work, while considering structural barriers and factors limiting our shared advancement in this space. A major goal of this session will be to identify “sticking points” in the evaluation of interventions and engage in a group conversation (both among the panelists and all workshop participants) about how to overcome those barriers.

Rising awareness of and increased attention to sexual harassment has resulted in momentum to implement sexual harassment prevention efforts in higher education institutions. Work on preventing sexual harassment is an area that has recently garnered a lot of attention, especially around education and programs that go beyond the standard anti-sexual harassment trainings often used to comply with legal requirements.

On April 20-21, 2021, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine hosted the workshop Developing Evaluation Metrics for Sexual Harassment Prevention Efforts. The workshop explored approaches and strategies for evaluating and measuring the effectiveness of sexual harassment interventions being implemented at higher education institutions and research and training sites, in order to assist institutions in transforming promising ideas into evidence-based best practices. Workshop participants also addressed methods, metrics, and measures that could be used to evaluate sexual harassment prevention efforts that lead to change in the organizational climate and culture and/or a change in behavior among community members. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussion of the workshop.
