SEXUAL ASSAULT AND HARASSMENT IN ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELDWORK

ÂÌñÒùÆÞ is pleased to share links to two recent publications that discuss the issue of sexual assault and harassment in archaeological fieldwork. Francesca Levy and Rebecca Greenfield interviewed ÂÌñÒùÆÞ Member Beth Alpert Nakhai (Arizona Center for Judaic Studies at the University of Arizona; chair of ÂÌñÒùÆÞ’s Initiative on the Status of Women) about her work on these issues in an October 25, 2017, Bloomberg News podcast. And ÂÌñÒùÆÞ member Megan Perry sent a link to SAFE Study Part II, a follow-up to the important study published in PLoSONE in 2014 about the alarming rate of abuse and harassment in field situations.

INTERVIEW WITH BETH ALPERT NAKHAI

In the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal – and so many other scandals, as well – Beth Alpert Nakhai (Arizona Center for Judaic Studies at The University of Arizona; chair of ÂÌñÒùÆÞ’s Initiative on the Status of Women) is interviewed about the serious problem of safety from sexual assault and harassment in archaeological fieldwork settings.

The Harvey Weinstein in Your Industry

Sexual harassment scandals across a wide variety of fields share common themes.
By Francesca Levy and Rebecca Greenfield

The scandal that unfolded after dozens of women accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault and harassment over decades has brought renewed attention to sexual misconduct and discrimination in the workplace. After the first wave of allegations against the producer and former studio head, some focused on how Hollywood tends to promote and protect abuses by powerful men. But singling out one industry is a mistake.

to be directed to the podcast interview.

LINK TO SAFE STUDY PART II

In 2014 in PLoSONE about the alarming rate of abuse and harassment in field situations. A recent follow-up article to the original SAFE study notes that having specific agendas in place to deal with harassment tends to alleviate the long-term effects of these behaviors on victims. We encourage every project in the field during this season to adopt a clear protocol regarding how recipients of such harassment can report these behaviors, and what steps the project will take in response to such reports.
