The\u00a0Munin\u00a0conference follows the anti-harassment policy of its host institution \u2013\u00a0UiT\u00a0The Arctic University of Norway. The following is based on\u00a0UiT\u2019s\u00a0general\u00a0<\/i>policy against sexual harassment<\/i><\/a>.<\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sexual harassment is incompatible with a healthy work, study and conference environment and with\u00a0UiT\u2019s\u00a0core values of credibility, academic freedom, closeness, creativity and commitment. Harassment is a form of abuse of power that simply cannot and will not be tolerated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is sexual harassment?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u201cSexual harassment means unwanted conduct of a sexual nature, or other conduct based on sex affecting the dignity of women and men at work. This can include unwelcome physical, verbal or non-verbal conduct.<\/i>\u00a0<\/span>The essential characteristic of sexual harassment is that it is unwanted by the recipient, that it is for each individual to determine what behavior is acceptable to them and what they regard as offensive\u201d.<\/i>\u00a0<\/span>(Commission of the European Communities, 92\/131\/EEC)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is how sexual harassment is subjectively experienced that decides how it affects the life situation of the person involved.\u00a0Casual remarks, a darting look and slight physical contact are not sexual harassment unless they are perceived as such. It depends on the person and the circumstances. As the social setting and cultural environment are often of great significance, it is important to be especially careful in multicultural situations where people with different ethnic backgrounds work or study together. Sexual harassment occurs when a person uses his or her power to achieve advantages or suppress others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How reports of sexual harassment are handled\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Reports of sexual harassment are handled in accordance with rules of non-disclosure of confidential information. He\/she who reports harassment may ask that the report should be treated confidentially and that no actions should be taken without the consent of the person who has reported the matter. When cases of harassment are handled, they are stored with a high degree of protection to secure that access is only given to the staff involved in the\u00a0particular case.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>If the person who reports harassment requires\u00a0anonymity and does not want his\/her identity to be revealed to the person the report is about,\u00a0UiT\u00a0will respect this as far as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
