Proposal

Seven members of the ESA and of the Solidarity Network of Victims of Gender Violence in Universities, wish to propose to add the following articles to the Ethical Guidelines of ESA. This network is an official one recognised by the Spanish Observatory of Gender Violence since 2015 (for more information: https://www.facebook.com/Red-solidaria-de-v%C3%ADctimas-de-violencia-de-g%C3%A9nero-en-las-universidades-834367176577567). In order to make this proposal to the General Assembly, the signatures of 20% of ESA members are needed.

Ana Vidu, University of Deusto
Cristina Pulido, Autonomous University of Barcelona
Guiomar Merodio, Nebrija University
Mar Joanpere, Universitat Rovira i Virgili
Roger Campdepadrós, Universitat de Girona
Teresa Morlà, Universitat Rovira i Virgili
Tinka Shubert, Standford University

The proposal to add is the following:

“Ethical Guideline 13: ESA holds that its members, conference participants and partners take a stand against sexual harassment, revictimization and second-order sexual harassment”.

These are the reasons to include it:

Recent “Metoo” and other movements have moved organizations to take a much clearer stand against sexual harassment, revictimization and second-order sexual harassment. ESA Ethical Guidelines do not explicitly include this relevant issue, while many of its members are taking stand with our researches and actions. We think and we hope that members of ESA will agree in including this as a new article of the ESA Ethical Guidelines.

The overcoming of sexual harassment and revictimization requires the support of bystanders, and this support requires legislation, norms and actions against the attacks towards the bystanders. Legislation against second-order sexual harassment has already been approved by unanimity in one Parliament in Europe. We think it is already the moment to approve this article in ESA.

If you support this and you are a member of ESA, you can sign including your full name, email and affiliation:
