Session:
Join a peer-to-peer learning dialogue on the latest work of the Chief Executives Board (CEB) Task Force on Addressing Sexual Harassment within the Organizations of the UN system and the Civil Society partners and UN Member States. As COVID-19 has altered the world of work, efforts towards sexual harassment must adapt to our changing workplaces, in particular online sexual harassment. The event will explore how we can collaborate to address, prevent and, ultimately eradicate sexual harassment online. UN entities, Civil Society Representatives, UN Member States, and private sector partners will discuss good practices and efforts being undertaken to tackle sexual harassment online and deepen the dialogue on continued joint efforts to prevent sexual harassment online within the UN System and its partners.
