Keynote by Dr. Purna Sen from @UN_Women: ‘sexual harassment is a creature of gender inequality’ #fassm
Talks about the importance of classing sexual conduct as harassment when it is *unwelcome*, and moving away from using the term consent, which is poorly understood, and cannot easily accommodate issues of power inequalities #fassm
Highlights how we need to move away from a culture that views people making complaints as a nuisance, as causing trouble. They are in fact helping authorities to deliver their obligations. #fassm
Currently, due to risk of retaliation, re-victimisation, lack of trust in the system and inadequate/lack of consequences, not reporting is a rational response. How do we make reporting rational instead? Make it safe, worthwhile, timely, ensure consequences #fassm
Moving away from institutional betrayal, to institutional courage. #FASSM
