Title:
The Anti-HABI Toolkit: Practical Workshop on Solutions and Measures for Preventing and Addressing Harassment, Assault, Bullying and Intimidation in Archaeology
Content:
This workshop is the first in a series of training events that its organizers wish to host at future Annual Meetings of the European Association of Archaeologists (EAA). As a follow-up to the 2022 EAA session “The anti-HABI toolkit: Practical solutions and measures for preventing and addressing harassment, assault, bullying and intimidation in archaeology”, this collaborative, interactive workshop aims to provide practical steps to help prevent HABI occurring. As such it also builds on the many HABI-focused discussions, papers, sessions, publications, and measures that have taken place in recent years, initiated by both EAA members and other colleagues from across the archaeology sector.
The workshop will include:
- A short presentation on what constitutes HABI, its different forms, and its occurrence in European archaeology based on the latest surveys;
- An interactive training session in which workshop participants will learn to identify HABI and practice skills to safely use when witnessing HABI situations;
- A discussion in which workshop participants can ask questions about HABI, share their experiences of the training, and their feedback on it.
The workshop is organized under the aegis of the EAA’s Education, Training, and Professional Development Advisory Committee, its Appeal and Anti-Harassment Committee and its Archaeology and Gender in Europe Community, in collaboration with the British Archaeological Job Resource’s RESPECT Campaign.
The session is limited to 40 participants on a first come first serve basis. We understand individuals, particularly those who have experienced HABI, may wish to step out of the workshop at any point for a short period and a safe space will be made available.
