The University of Michigan presents the 2023 Conference on Ending Sexual Harassment and Gender-Based Violence: Healing, Change, Transformation. Lead organizers are the Prevention Education, Assistance, and Resources (PEAR) Department and the Initiative on Gender-Based Violence and Sexual Harassment, supported by the Office of the Provost, Institute for Research on Women and Gender (IRWG), and the Office of Vice President for Research.

This in-person conference welcomes researchers, practitioners, staff, faculty, and students to discuss innovations in research and practice on sexual harassment and gender-based violence. The theme of this year’s event is Healing, Change, Transformation. This trauma-informed and survivor-centered event will focus on individual and collective healing and share novel approaches to prevention and response.

The first day will be dedicated to professional development workshops on incubating research on gender-based violence, circle processes, and approaches to healing for survivors, and will conclude with a reception. The second day will include a plenary, concurrent sessions, a poster session, art display, and networking opportunities.
