*ADVANCEGeo launches new online resource center to address sexual
harassment in the geosciencesJune 11, 2018The National Science
Foundation-funded ADVANCEGeo project has released a collection of online
resources <https://serc.carleton.edu/advancegeo/resources/index.html> for
the community on relevant research and tested strategies to respond to
sexual harassment, bullying and discrimination in academia. These public
resources can be used to: define and understand harassment, bullying, and
discrimination; design codes of conduct, including for field research
projects and courses; and identify best strategies for creating inclusive
and equitable workplace climates. The online resource center is hosted by
the Science Education and Research Center at Carleton College.  ADVANCEGeo
<https://serc.carleton.edu/dev/advancegeo/project_team.html> project goals
include (1) developing and testing bystander intervention training
workshops <https://serc.carleton.edu/advancegeo/workshops/index.html> with
disciplinary-specific scenarios, which incorporate intersectionality; (2)
developing teaching modules that define harassment as scientific
misconduct; (3) disseminating training materials via professional
societies; and (4) developing a sustainable model that can be transferred
to other STEM disciplines. Funded by a 4-year US National Science
Foundation ADVANCE Partnership award in 2017, ADVANCEGeo is a collaboration
among the Earth Science Women’s Network, the Association for Women
Geoscientists, and the American Geophysical Union. Partnering institutions
include: University of Wisconsin-Madison, Colorado College, Brown
University, California State University, Los Angeles, and University of
California, Merced and evaluation teams at the Wisconsin Center for
Education Research and the Colorado State University STEM Center.ADVANCEGeo
