\n<\/strong>In April of 2025, the Gender Harassment in Science & Academia Summit was held for our community to define and develop a framework to address power dynamics and the culture that contributes to gender harassment at Boston University. This summit featured a keynote address, a panel composed of students, staff, and survivors, facilitated discussion, and closing remarks from student groups. Our goal was to emphasize the importance of collaboration to prevent gender harassment by moving beyond survivor support and empowerment.<\/p>\n
