Female students (and employees) in STEM\nprograms experience significantly higher rates of sexism\,\ndiscrim ination\, exclusion\, and sexual harassment than women in\nnon-STEM discip lines.\n\nAccording to the Statistics Canada 2019 survey\n[https://www150. statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/85-002-x/2020001/article/00005-eng.htm]\,\n71% of stu dents at Canadian postsecondary schools witnessed or\nexperienced unwanted sexualized behaviours in a postsecondary\nsetting—either on campus\, or in an off-campus situation that\ninvolved students or other people associ ated with the school. Most of\nthose who had experienced these unwanted be haviours stated that the\nperpetrators were fellow students. Relatively fe w students said that\nthe perpetrators were professors and others in posit ions of authority.\n\nAs society learns more about the causes\, both direc t causes such as\nbreaking consent\, and indirect causes like systems that benefit men\nand blame victims/survivors for what happened to them\, it ’s\nimportant to learn about these causes and how you can contribute to\ npreventing them. It’s not just to show the people around you that\nyou want them to lead a life free of gender-based violence and the\nmany barri ers it creates\, but it also shows future employers that\nyou’ve investe d in equity work – one more way to set your resume\napart of the rest of the crowd.
