Astro2020 APC白皮书:AAS妇女在天文学中的地位委员会的调查结果和建议:努力消除天文学中的骚扰
Astro2020 APC White Paper: Findings and Recommendations from the AAS Committee on the Status of Women in Astronomy: Towards Eliminating Harassment in Astronomy
摘要:
天文学妇女地位委员会(CSWA)呼吁联邦科学资助机构,作为美国天文学最大的资金来源,采取行动结束天文工作场所的骚扰,特别是性骚扰。资助机构可以而且应该带头通过2030年天体物理学十年调查结束天文学骚扰。妇女地位委员会和其他团体收集的轶事和定量证据表明,骚扰现象普遍存在,对妇女和少数民族天文学家以及相关领域的天文学家造成损害。本文建议的行动将提高向各机构报告骚扰事件的比率,并提高其调查和对骚扰者采取行动的能力。我们还建议各机构通过创建和实施最好的反骚扰教育来参与预防骚扰。主要建议是:-联邦机构应通过将骚扰作为一种科学不端行为来改善其道德政策。- 联邦机构应要求机构在发现受资助的主要研究者(PI)或共同主要研究者(co-PI)是骚扰行为者时向他们报告。- 联邦资助机构应该提供在线指南,帮助科学家识别骚扰,并将他们与正确的资源联系起来,以制作机密或官方报告。- 联邦机构应开展反骚扰培训并确保其实施,将其作为获得赠款资金的一项要求。
英文摘要:
The Committee on the Status of Women in Astronomy (CSWA) is calling on federal science funding agencies, in their role as the largest sources of funding for astronomy in the United States, to take actions that will end harassment, particularly sexual harassment, in astronomical workplaces. Funding agencies can and should lead the charge to end harassment in astronomy by the 2030 Astrophysics Decadal Survey. Anecdotal and quantitative evidence, gathered both by the CSWA and other groups, shows that harassment is prevalent and damaging for women and minority astronomers and those in related fields. Actions recommended herein will increase the rate of reporting of harassment to agencies and improve their ability to investigate and take action against harassers. We also recommend that agencies participate in harassment prevention by creating and implementing the best anti-harassment education possible. Key recommendations are: - Federal agencies should improve their ethics policies by making harassment a form of scientific misconduct. - Federal agencies should mandate that institutions report to them when a funded Principal Investigator (PI) or co-Principal Investigator (co-PI) is found to be a perpetrator of harassment. - Federal funding agencies should provide online guides to help scientists identify harassment and connect them to the right resources for making confidential or official reports. - Federal agencies should create and ensure the implementation of anti-harassment trainings by making them a requirement of receiving grant funding.
